A WELL-KNOWN Barbadian figure has done his part to fill the void created by the lack of literature on Bajan Heritage.

Journalist Glyne Murray presented a copy of his book Barbados-Customs to Treasures: Early Gems of Bajan Creativity, to the Department of Archives this morning. The book was published in July.

In accepting Murray’s gift, chief archivist David Williams said books on the social and economic history of Barbados were in great demand. He said this book would make a “valuable” addition to the collection. (YB)
