Caribbean World: A Complete Geography

Abstract

Caribbean World is one of the most up-to-date compendiums of geographical information about the Caribbean for secondary school and lower-level college students. The text follows the 'systems' approach, recognizing that the geography of the region can be affected by phenomena both within and outside the realm of geography. The book gives comprehensive explanations of the natural and human factors that affect the region, discussing plate tectonics, geological landscapes, coastal landscapes, water, weather, soil, vegetation, mineral resources, agriculture, fishing, manufacturing, tourism, population, towns, and trade. Extensively illustrated with diagrams and maps, attention is given to both the large and small islands of the region.
