This book is factual and was written 20 years later, about Fleming's time, friends and experiences in Jamaica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Snorter Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 Quite an interesting and informative book, though at the end of it all a bit depressing. Probably those who read other histories will like it the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 There a lot of pictures in that book? There is a site where you can download many many ebooks. Most epubs run around 500 to maybe 700 kb. They have two copies of that book on the site. One is 3 Meg and the other is 10.5 Meg. Only reason I can think of for the files being that large is that they are full of pictures.

There are photos one section of glossies, others monochrome scattered through the book, most quite poor quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
