This book is about one of the world's greatest collections of iron guns..... This unique collection is a commendable achievement in itself, but it is also a most valuable contribution to the history of both naval guns, and those installed in shore defences in the 17th century --Foreword by His Royal Highness the Prince Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh

This fascinating book of genuine historical significance not only describes this extraordinary collection of rare 17th Century English Iron Guns but also explains why and how they ended up in Barbados, a small island in the Caribbean.
