The Great Partnership
This inspiring account begins on the Caribbean island of Trinidad with the courtship that led to the long and happy marriage of Alphonso and Vesta. The story of the ?Great Partnership? is told from the heart by Alphonso, now a widower. It is a tribute to his beloved Vesta. Focusing on the courtship and wedding, this is a fascinating cultural insight into the way of life and customs of Trinidad and Tobago. The success of their Partnership was founded on Christian moral principles and the shared heritage of the young couple, and on their mutual passion for education. Despite initial strong opposition to their relationship, Alphonso and Vesta overcame all difficulties and obstacles in order to marry. They moved to the UK and studied hard, reaching their professional goals in life, and eventually became the proud parents of three children. Alphonso?s account of their temporary return to Trinidad in later years gives an insight into local prejudices, as he found himself caught between two worlds. The tragic death of Vesta and the void that her passing left in Alphonso?s life is described with deep emotion.
