Her father passed away when she was seventeen years old, but with the help of her mother and the Lord, she was able to overcome the sorrow. She earned a Bachelor of Arts and graduated from Palm Beach Atlantic College.

She is currently pursuing her great interests in nature, history, and archaeology.

Download or read book Life and Adventure in the West Indies Classic Reprint written by Vaquero Vaquero and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Adventure in the West Indies The present volume contains so few allusions to the preceding one that it is quite capable of being read as an independent production, being, on the face of it, a friendly effort to portray, by means of words and pictures, the beauty, the commercial products and the people of the West Indian Islands. Something more, however, than a mere description has been attempted by drawing attention to several of the causes which have adversely affected the prosperity of these places. The predictions made in the former volume relative to the results of the monopoly of the Panama Canal, and to the desirability of having an international waterway, have already been verified by the dispute about the canal-dues, and by the action of the United States in making negotiations for a suzerainty over Nicaragua, for the purpose of preventing other nations from using this alternative route. Owing to such unremitting American activity which is fast absorbing the Spanish-speaking Republics, Great Britain cannot afford to neglect her West Indian Islands, which are so near the scene of these vast changes that they must be implicated in them.
