From the jacket fold:
"This is an enthralling and very readable story with great appeal for both native Bahamians and visitors.
It traces the history of The Bahamas from early Lucayan times up to the present day when The Bahama Islands have achieved full nationhood and are renowned as a major tourist centre. An outline of the geographical factors which have been so influential in Bahamian affairs adds to our understanding of its history. The essential theme of the book is the struggle of the Bahamian people for survival against almost overwhelming odds. Particularly vivid and exciting are the author's accounts of piracy and wrecking.
Dr Albury has wide experience of Bahamian politics and ends by surveying conditions today and the outlook for the future."
