A Google-translated description of the book:  "Over the centuries, Mauritius has been enriched by the contribution of successive migrations of peoples from Europe, Africa, India and China. The result is a harmonious blend of cultures, beliefs and traditions. This book will be for some the occasion of a discovery. This will be for others a different approach to traditional guides, often impersonal. But those who have the chance to live in Mauritius will also appreciate in these pages the charm of a book where expresses the sensitivity of an artist. Sophie Ladame spontaneously grasped what caught her attention during her stay on the island, happily translating the country's atmosphere, its street scenes, its architecture and its beautiful natural settings. Yvan Martial brought his great knowledge of the history of the island but also the Mauritian news, writing texts and legends that accompany the watercolors of Sophie Ladame. With Mauritius watercolors, the artist and the author have found the ideal formula to show the riches of the island."

On the author and artist, Google-translated from a French website:  "Sophie Ladame discovered her vocation by sailing the oceans with her parents, especially in the Pacific and the West Indies.
