Little bit of real history of Gustavia

[Blackbrook]

I don't know whether this doctoral thesis has been mentioned here before, but it might be interesting, although I have not read it yet.

Word of caution.

Always contact the author ( if not yourself ) about having the work linked.

One, it is the appropriate gesture.

Two, promotes the historical game we play.

Eh? It looks like a perfectly legitimate academic site. Copyright law has nothing to do with linking to properly-published and hosted information.

I know. But is a nice gesture no ?

That is an open access published thesis in Doria which is "a multi-institutional repository maintained by National Library of Finland" as they say in the home page. That thesis is easy to find by the name of the author and title or even "Victor Wilson Gustavia".
