His Conway name was Sonny Boy, and it was in Conway that he grew from infancy to adulthood and became a shipwright, carpenter, joiner, fisherman, and musician. In "The Conway St. Lucia," author Clement Springer Williams remembers his life growing up in Conway St. Lucia, especially as this small community weathered World War II. Through this collection of stories, Williams narrates the sights, sounds, people, and culture of Conway. It was predominantly a fishing village, and fishing was his joy and his pastime. Conway was also the place that gave him an appreciation for intrinsic beauty, for divine revelation in things like the rising of the morning star and the bright and luminous beauty of the evening sunset. In this memoir, Williams tells about his many and varied experiences in this community whose people lived in unity and supported each other in every calamity-from saving lives to feeding the hungry, launching vessels, and burying the dead. "The Conway St. Lucia" shares the remembrances of yesterday and celebrates the changes of today.
