Hamiltons of the world, the story of Hamiltons across five continents - (hbk.)

Compiled by Tim Brooker"The inspiration for a book about Hamiltons of the World came about because Hamilton East Rotary Club needed a major fundraiser and I felt there had to be a way of utilising the other Hamilton Rotary Clubs around the world, especially as Hamilton, New Zealand is about to celebrate the 150th anniversary of its formation and current name. When I first emailed seventeen clubs in ten Hamiltons how little I knew where the journey would take me. Ultimately I located over one hundred and twenty Hamiltons on six continents and while some are simply listed at the end of each section I have managed, with the help largely of Rotary Clubs around the World, to include around eighty Hamiltons in the main text. From the big cities such as Hamilton, Ontario to the small communities such as Hamilton, Virginia and from Hamilton, the capital city of Bermuda to the holiday idyll of Hamilton Island, Queensland we have included some marvellous images"--Publisher's information
