Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These have long been the type of islands that tourists delighted in a€œdiscovering.a€ Seemingly untouched by modern times, they seemed like the a€œolda€ Caribbean a€" small, intimate hotels, pristine beaches, uncluttered roads, with acres of cane fields and rainforests dominating the landscape. You still find hints of the old laid-back islands here, especially in the delightful plantation inns on both islands. These small hotels, built around historical buildings and sugar mills, still have a colonial charm. They are furnished with Caribbean antiques and emphasize the old-fashioned standards of warm, personalized service. So it is possible to sample both the charm of the old world and the activities of the new. Here is a uniquely detailed guide to these islands, excerpted from our much larger Leeward Islands guide. Maps, photos, complete information on all the places to stay, the restaurants, what to see and do.

Download or read book A Small Place written by Jamaica Kincaid and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2000-04-28 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant look at colonialism and its effects in Antigua--by the author of Annie John "If you go to Antigua as a tourist, this is what you will see. If you come by aeroplane, you will land at the V. C. Bird International Airport. Vere Cornwall (V. C.) Bird is the Prime Minister of Antigua.

You are a tourist and you have not yet seen . . ." So begins Jamaica Kincaid's expansive essay, which shows us what we have not yet seen of the ten-by-twelve-mile island in the British West Indies where she grew up. Lyrical, sardonic, and forthright by turns, in a Swiftian mode, A Small Place cannot help but amplify our vision of one small place and all that it signifies.
