A title designed to provide general introduction to the Caribbean, with more historical than geographical information, on an overview map of the whole region at 1:4,000,000 plus an enlargement at 1:1,000,000 covering the Leeward and the Windward Islands. Main towns are marked with, where possible on larger islands, some roads and spot height for main peaks. All the countries and dependencies, as well as main places of interest along the surrounding coastal areas of the mainland, are accompanied by descriptions of their history. The map also includes brief biographies of notable people connected with the region, from Columbus and Amerigo Vespucci to Fidel Castro, general notes on the region’s history, geography and wildlife, and a time-line of important events from 1490 to 1995.
