The Dominica Story
I had started this book on a trip to Dominica but had to leave it behind and could not wait to get a copy of my own to read. The copy is in great condition and was received very quickly. I'd buy again from this source.

Comprehensive,enlightening and smart
I've read Lennox Honychurch's Book THE DOMINICA STORY and it is the most comprehensive book you will ever get on the history of the island of Dominica. From the arrival of the Caribs and Awaraks on their flimsy conoe to the arrival of Christopher Colombus and the Europian invasion on the island.The early politics on the islan is disected and put together as you turn the pages revealing the rich history of the "nature island of the caribbean".
