I was given this book when I was thirteen and read it so many times, I still can remember some of the dialog between my favorite characters. NealTravis takes you on a history ride and tackles all major events from the colonial times to the society changing 1960's of the island of Bermuda. Colorful story and captivating characters, my only regret is having lost my copy of the book.
