Dominica is not to be confused with the Dominican Republic, it lies between Guadaloupe and Martinique in the Windward Isles of the Eastern Caribbean. With a past rich in Amerindian, African, French and British influences, many of the island's people speak Creole and most farm the highly fertile land. This guide describes the country's history, national parks, tours and treks, towns, villages, forts and ports. It provides information on diving, handicrafts, local cuisine, folklore and festivals and a section on where to stay and where to eat.
