  The Expatriate Siamese
Hardback, 208 pages

All cat lovers and children of eight and above would be delighted to receive a copy of The Expatriate Siamese. Pamela Legge had at least one Siamese cat living with her throughout her life and this book relates to her favourite, a graceful female chocolate-point called Tia Maria. Although it is largely fiction, many of the events she describes actually happened and the story is enhanced by Sally Holmes' beautiful illustrations which were specially commissioned for this book.

The Expatriate Siamese was published in 2000 but it will never date. Click here for a description of its content and part of the opening chapter, or here for independent press and radio reviews.

  

 
 

Enjoying Majorca 
Hardback, 288 pages

Enjoying Majorca is one of the most comprehensive and entertaining guides to the popular holiday island of Mallorca. It combines descriptions of the places of interest and their many spectacular fiestas with a captivating account of Pamela's life on Mallorca from her first visit in 1952. She became a resident in 1986 and lived there happily until her death at the age of eighty in 2009. The book has been recognised by the Department for Tourism in Majorca - see 'Reviews' for comment by its Director, Maritínez Cañellas.

Illustrated by her elder daughter Claire Baker, Enjoying Majorca was first published in 1995 and a few of the restaurants mentioned are no longer trading, but it remains a highly entertaining read about expatriate life and a reliable guide to the island. Click here for more details.
