THREE YEARS IN TRISTAN DA CUNHA
BY
K. M. BARROW
Wife of the Rev. J. G. Barrow, Missionary Clergyman in Tristan Da Cunha
and fellow-worker with him on that island.
With thirty-seven original illustrations from photographs, and a map.
TO THE READER
The aim of the following pages is to give a simple and true description of
daily life among a very small community cut off from the rest of the
world.
No attempt is made at literary style, the language being almost entirely
that of letters to a sister or of my journal.
In the first and third chapters free use has been made of the _Blue Book_
(Cd. 3098), September 1906; and of the _Africa Pilot_, Part II, Fifth
Edition, 1901.
I desire gratefully to acknowledge to Mr. Casper Keytel of Monille Point,
Cape Town, his very kind permission to use the excellent photographs taken
by him; and also my indebtedness to my husband for help in the revision of
these pages.
