C. H. Thomas (1911-1994) had an illustrious career as a Public Servant going from a teenaged Pupil Teacher at the small country school in Troumaca, St Vincent, to advisor to Heads of Governments in St Kitts, Nevi and Anguilla, and in Montserrat. Thomas' varied interests included politics, music, religion and writing. His contributions throughout the Caribbean in these areas are well known and admired. Through his writing, his true love, he had the gift of bringing his many experiences, interests and disarming sense of humour together to create a tale of wisdom and depth as in his classic Ruler in Hiroona.
