"This highly insightful book takes a comprehensive look at the most remote inhabited island in the world. Located in the South Atlantic Ocean, the island lies midway between Brazil and South Africa. Included are descriptions of the history of the island since its discovery in 1506, the community that lives there today and their way of life, and the special kind of English they speak, including a glossary of local terms. Over 50 black and white photographs illustrate views of the island, its unique wildlife, its inhabitants, and their diverse activities."
