Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRAVEL & HOLIDAY GUIDES. The volcanic island of Grenada and the smaller Grenadines, Carriacou and Petite Martinique, sit at the southern tip of the Windward Islands chain in the eastern Caribbean. In 2004, they were decimated by Hurricane Ivan. The nutmeg trees on which the economy was once reliant were destroyed, and buildings and infrastructure collapsed. But now the islands have been rebuilt, renovated and improved. They are once more open for business, and enjoying a newfound prosperity as visitor numbers increase year on year. This guide takes hikers on treks through the rainforest, and divers to The Bianca C, the largest shipwreck in the Caribbean. It shows cultural visitors the nation's diverse heritage and rich musical traditions and leads those in need of a little lie-down to unspoilt beaches and secluded coves.

Book excerpt: Red Calypso tells the story of Grenada's fall to Marxist tyranny and the United States' rescue of the island from a violent and fanatical government. When Maurice Bishop took over the government of Grenada establishing a one-party state on Leninist principles, he did not know that he would one day fall victim to his own machinery.

The book was quite useful with good descriptions (usually a paragraph or two) of the accomodations and restaurants on the islands we visited (Grenada, Mayreau, Bequia, Carricou, Tobago Cays). The authors were very up front about the experiences they DIDN'T like which helped us to avoid frustration. The book also had a nicely organized table of contents which helped navigate the book quickly... This is an excellent guidebook for the area and is highly recommended." -- Matthew Clark (Amazon reviewer). A guide to St Vincent, Grenada and the Grenadines.

From fishermen in Barrouallie to Rastas in the Port Elizabeth market and a botanist in St. George's, we get a sense of the lives that entwine to make up the fabric of these islands. Also, each section begins with a history of the place at hand, so important to understanding the southern Windwards. The authors have produced a journeyman labor, a product of discernment and enterprise tempered with warmth and humor. Those of us who have seen the southern Windwards as a special place for so long have reason to be thankful and relieved."Paul Tyler, Caribbean Compass

Book Synopsis Introduction to Grenada by : Gilad James, PhD
Download or read book Introduction to Grenada written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grenada is a small island nation located in the southeastern Caribbean Sea, lying north of Trinidad and Tobago, and south of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. The country is made up of three islands, namely Grenada, Carriacou, and Petite Martinique. Grenada has an area of approximately 348 square kilometers and a population of around 112,000 residents. The capital city of the country is St. George's, which is located on the southwestern coast of Grenada. The history of Grenada can be traced back to the arrival of the Carib Indians, who traveled from South America and settled on the islands around 800 AD. In the late 15th century, the Spanish arrived on the island, but they never fully colonized it due to fierce resistance from the Caribs. The French and British also had interest in the island and established settlements there. Grenada gained independence from the British in 1974, and it is now a democratic, multi-party state that operates under a parliamentary system of government. The economy of the country is largely based on agriculture, particularly the production of cocoa and nutmeg, as well as tourism.
