Allowing each person's story to stand with its own color, texture, and pattern, Olga Jenkins has created a people's history of The Bahamas. Those interviewed were born between 1900 and 1942, and their voices are as varied as the populations of the eight islands the author visited, including black, white, mixed, and working- and middle-class individuals.
