Jamaika

When Jamaica is mentioned, many people first think of rum, reggae, and Rastas. Today, Jamaica has become a travel destination. Each year, about 30,000 German tourists visit the island. Peter Paul Zahl, who has lived in Jamaica since 1985, describes his adopted home from an insider's perspective, lovingly and with great sympathy for the Jamaican people's desire for freedom, in detail, with an emphasis on the island's tumultuous history, and with a clear view of its economy, society, and culture. It is an excellent introduction for anyone who is enthusiastic about Jamaica or has yet to discover it.
