A magnificent, richly illustrated large-format work on the Virgin Islands of the United States. The book takes as its point of departure the buildings and monuments of the former Danish West Indies but also presents the landscapes, people, and history of the islands from the last decades of the seventeenth century until today.

Specifically, the book tells the stories of selected sites where typical architecture can be seen, sites that are important points of access to the history of the Danish West Indies and the people who created that history: the masons who built the forts, the architects behind the design of cities and schools, the mapmakers, the officials of the Danish West India–Guinea Company and the Danish state, the plantation owners, the enslaved workers, the free coloured artisans, and others.
