The book for country #11 is Bahama Saga, the epic story of the Bahama Islands by Peter Barratt.
My first experience with a self-published book.Verdict? A mixed bag. Well written history, with a little narrative fiction tossed in to keep the story moving. But then all of the sudden…a sex scene?
Not against that as a general concept in any way, but in this particular situation…jarring is the word that came to mind. Awkward is a close second. An editor would probably have given the idea a thumbs down.
That oddness aside, it was an quick read and an solid introduction to the very interesting history of The Bahamas.
