Militiaman, 1720, now available as a print from the Priaulx Library Christmas Shop We have just launched some really exquisite prints from Percy Groves' watercolours of the Guernsey militia through the ages. These are new for 2012 and we are very excited about them - this is the first time that they have been made available to the public and they are sure to be very popular indeed. One of the prints, of a militiaman from 1720, is shown to the right. Our Library Shop is open during Library opening hours. If you have any queries about the prints please contact a Librarian.
