Abstract: | The idea for this publication developed from the popular series “Promoting Gozo through Philately (by numerous guest authors) which has been appearing in the Gozo Philatelic Society Newsletter for quite some time. The spark was then provided by the Assistance Scheme for projects by NGOs contributing towards the implementation of the Eco-Gozo Action Plan promoted by the Ministry for Gozo late in 2010. Our wish is that these glances at our island will offer an interesting read for all – and actually whet the appetite for more information. Two-page spreads give illustrated facts about the Gozitan vilages including the three legally-recognized hamlets, Marsalforn, Santa Lucija and Xlendi and three other locations which do so merit, Comino, Mgarr and Ta’ Pinu to reach a total of twenty. Furthermore this publication includes a poem dedicated to Gozo, Gozitan historical highlights, a list of feasts in Gozo, Gozo personalities on stamps and postmarks, GPS cards/philatelic issues and a description of the Gozo Philatelic Society including its foundation and function within the community |
