| Zusammenfassung: | The island of St. Helena, in the South Atlantic, is one of the most remote (more than 2000km from the nearest major land mass) and yet most famous islands in the world, due to it being the final place of exile of Napoleon Bonaparte, a role for which it was chosen because of its very remoteness from Europe. St. Helena today is a unique colonial survivor, almost without an economy of its own. Lacking an airport, the only regular link is by the Royal Mail Ship St Helena, the last of her type, and the inhabitants are dependent on the support of the British government. Almost the only thing going for the island is its history, with what tourists there are attracted by Napoleon's last residence, now maintained by the French government. This book is truly an account of a visit to "the last place on earth."--From publisher description |
