It provides in chronologicalorder, highlights of the years, with different aspects of the colony'shistory, providing some, like the volcanic eruptions of 1812 and 1902 and theEnglish-"Carib" war of 1795-1796 in greater detail. The Handbook also carries short pieces on a variety of places of interest: thechurches, Botanic Garden, the Carnegie Free Public Library, the secondaryschools at that time, the Glen Community School that no longer exists, theAgricultural School, city and towns, the Grenadine islands, the governors andadministrators who had served the colony, and names of government officersin the public service, among others.
