Through My Corner

Through my corner lived the most beautiful women the world has ever seen

They were sincere, diligent and honest – women who have kept their surroundings clean

They have produced Technicians, a Pilot, a Pharmacist, an Engineer and

Teachers too; a Permanent Secretary, Entrepreneurs, Photographers and

Civil Servants

They baked cakes and cooked the best meals

They were always there to comfort each other when bereaved

They have prayed together and laughed together and have had many

chats…

And throughout the years that I have known them, they have never had a

spat!

Through my corner lived the most beautiful women the world has ever seen

They were women of faith, women of courage and women of strength. These

were women worthy of high esteem:

Blanche Campbell

Shirley Cartwright Lorraine Charlton (deceased)

Cynthia Duncombe

Drucilla Ferguson (deceased)

Leanzar Mae Tinker-Hanna (deceased)

Alberta Miller

Louise Rolle (deceased)

This is an authentic Bahamian history book that will prove to be timeless, as well as a great source

of information for the next generation.

This is also a reference book that is easy to read and understand.

Women in Bahamian History Volume 2 is a book of inspiration, courage and motivation. It is

a book that features women that were the first to break barriers in areas that were once male

dominated. This book celebrates women of The Bahamas.

To every woman born on the Bahamian soil, this book shows the things that can be achieved

through hard work and determination. This book showcases the strength and vitality of Bahamian

women and it proves that there are no boundaries to what women are capable of attaining.

This is a special book, not just because it features women who have made great strides and

contributions to the Bahamian society, but because it features women born in the Bahamas

exclusively.
