What would a sailing challenge be without green water over the bow and a hard beat to windward? ‘Quest on the Thorny Path’ is the second book of the Quest series. You are now on the feared and fabled Thorny Path. Leave the laid back cruiser hangout of Georgetown, Bahamas behind and hit the big ocean waves for the first time. From Georgetown we take the path less traveled through the deserted and desolate out islands of the southern Bahamas. After a short stay in the Turks and Caicos, our course takes us to the north coast of Hispaniola. Christopher Columbus appropriately named this stretch of boat-eating ocean the ‘Thorny Path’. The book is a true adventure about overcoming fear and dealing with dangerous challenges in one of sailing’s harshest proving grounds. Bashing through heavy seas and strong headwinds on a lee shore isn’t for everyone. But at least you can read about it. Read more

Rick Waters is fresh off of solving a kidnapping case involving a famous guitar and ready to take a long break from work. He and his girlfriend Jules head to Tulum, Mexico, for some badly needed R&R. But their vacation is cut short when a young woman in the villa next to theirs is found dead in a bathroom, and $2.5 million dollars-worth of her father’s uncut diamonds go missing.The local police want to rule the death a suicide, but Rick finds the circumstances too suspicious and fears the young woman, named Ava, was in fact murdered. She suffered from BPD and had a shaky relationship with her father and stepmother, among others. More importantly, her boyfriend—who has conveniently also disappeared, and whom Ava claimed raped her before she died—has a history of assaulting women and getting away with it. That makes him the prime suspect. While Jules braves dangerous territory to try and recover the stolen diamonds, Rick focuses on bringing justice to Ava by tracking down her boyfriend before he flees Mexico for good and leaves behind a cold case.

From the Nobel Prize-winning author comes a classic of modern travel writing—a deft portrait of Trinidad and the four adjacent Caribbean societies still haunted by the legacies of slavery and colonialism.“Belongs in the same category of travel writing as Lawrence’s books on Italy, Greene’s on West Africa and Pritchett’s on Spain.” —New StatesmanIn 1960 the government of Trinidad invited V. S. Naipaul to revisit his native country and record his impressions. In The Middle Passage, Naipaul watches a Trinidadian movie audience greeting Humphrey Bogart’s appearance with cries of “That is man!” He ventures into a Trinidad slum so insalubrious that the locals call it the Gaza Strip. He follows a racially charged election campaign in British Guiana (now Guyana) and marvels at the Gallic pretension of Martinique society, which maintains the fiction that its roads are extensions of France’s routes nationales. And throughout he relates the ghastly episodes of the region’s colonial past and shows how they continue to inform its language, politics, and values. The result is a work of novelistic vividness and dazzling perspicacity that displays Naipaul at the peak of his powers. Read more

This is the July 7, 2014, 4th edition of the Visitor’s Guide to Bermuda. It has been updated as of July 7, and is always updated very quickly when I learn of new or outdated information. New photos have been added and the maps have been enlarged for better viewing. But there's more: if you purchase the paperback edition of the book, you get the Kindle edition for free. So, if you’re planning a visit to Bermuda, or if you’ve booked a cruise to the island, you’ll find this book a valuable resource. Within these pages you'll find all the In-depth information you'll need about Bermuda to make your trip a success, including: Things to do in BermudaWhere to Stay – Resorts, Small Hotels, Guest Houses and Self-Catering CottagesHow to get Around BermudaBermuda’s Beaches and ParksHiking - and the Bermuda Railway TrailFishing, Boating and SnorkelingScuba Diving, including detailed shipwreck infoTouring the Island Parish by ParishPractical Visitor InformationAnd Much MoreBermuda is a magical island, a quite world of pastel-colored buildings with snowy-white roofs, emerald waters and pink, sandy beaches. I fell in love with Bermuda more than 25 years ago, and I can still remember the first time I set foot upon the island. I also remember that first flight in over the reef: the turquoise blue of the deep ocean, the emerald shallows, and then the verdant greens, pastel colors and glistening whites on the islands proper. Magical does not describe that first glimpse of Bermuda from the air.There’s something very special about this little group of islands. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve visited the Bermuda; it’s addictive, an experience you’ll never forget, and I’ve been writing about it for as long as I can remember. Whether it’s the combination of the English culture and its sub-tropical setting, or something else, Bermuda is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful places on Earth.Bermuda, one of the world’s smallest countries, is a tiny world with a tiny capital city, Hamilton, and shops, churches and cafes on narrow streets that might well have been plucked from any one of a hundred little English towns. The old-world cathedral, the bright red British pillar boxes (post boxes), and the food, especially afternoon tea - an almost religious experience in Bermuda - all seem to make Bermuda even more British than England itself. Nowhere in England, however, will you find anything that can compare to the pink sandy beaches, the crystal ocean waters, or the beautiful island terrain. You have to see it to believe it. Today, the island of Bermuda welcomes visitors from around the world, and it will welcome you too. You can spend a week, or two, or more, at one of the expensive luxury resort hotels, or perhaps one of small cottage colonies; or you can choose to stay at one of a hundred neat little bed & breakfast homes, guest houses or all-inclusive hotels, or you might like to choose from one of the many self-catering options. Just about every budget is catered for, and you’re sure to find something to suit your taste, and your wallet. You can do six nights, seven days on the islands for as little as $1,250 U.S. per person, or you can pay that much, or more, per night. Whatever your budget, you’re sure of a wonderful experience.One more thing before I leave you to read on: should you find out of date information herein (and you probably will, because nothing stays the same for very long),I would appreciate the opportunity to update it. You should also know that I do not have any control over the size of the photographs or maps; this controlled by Amazon as part of their formatting for the devices. So, rather than putting a negative review on Amazon, please send me an email explaining what needs to be updated and I will do it immediately - the same day I get it. You can send me an email at [email protected]. Thank you, and enjoy. Read more
