Description

This book traces St Helena's progress from a uniquely unblemished tropical paradise to its present much-impoverished state. It examines the impacts of settlement by the East India Company; the island's use as a base for scientific observations; its role as a prison-fortress for Napoleon and others, and as a base for anti-slavery patrols following abolition; through to modern day efforts to reconnect the island to the modern world while preserving its ecological diversity.
