Item description from seller

Before tourism eroded traditional ways, the author spent five years in his small sloop, sailing from island to island to seek out the native and traditional boat builders. Each and every island of the Lesser Antilles and Windward Islands is visited. Not only is this a guide to Caribbean boat building but a guide to Caribbean culture as well. Profusely illustrated with photographs.
