Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A well told story with humourous and insightful moments about Australian ecologist John Read and his family as they battle to save Tetepare Island in the Solomons from ugly indiscriminate logging. They establish the Tetepare Descendants Association (TDA) and share the challenges of different food, culture, disease and education systems with TDA and the reader. This is the story of Tetepare, the South Pacific's largest uninhabited island. One and a half centuries after headhunters fled the island, Tetepare's virgin rainforest and teeming coral reefs were pitted against destructive logging companies and greedy 'big men'. From this, the Solomon Islands' first world-class conservation initiative arose. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
