Guernsey is the most western of the Channel Islands, with a proud
maritime history spanning many centuries. Only 25 square miles, the
island nevertheless has a great variety of landscapes, from the rugged
cliffs in the south to the low-lying dunes in the north. The ten
parishes, each with their own unique community spirit, are home to over
60,000 people. This grows greatly during the summer as visitors come to
experience the island's quiet country lanes and the bustling streets of
St Peter Port. Historically, Guernsey people have made their mark not
just on the sea, but in thriving stone industries, agriculture and
horticulture, and in recent years, international banking. Guernsey
Through Time explores this fascinating little island through the
historical photograph collection of the Priaulx Library, many of which
have never been published. Locals and visitors alike will discover a
unique insight into how Guernsey has changed over time.
