Amazingly Helpful

This is simply the greatest informational book on T & T. Wonderful color pictures and descriptions. Spot-on!

Wonderful pictures and prose

It provided a wealth of information for the average...

Great for orienting to the country

I was told by the locals that I was "well read" after reading this one. Lot's of pictures, lots of history and lots of current information make it a perfect preparation for a trip to the island.
