| ABOUT THIS EDITION OF BAHAMAS HANDBOOK Some wag once said “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” The Bahamas Handbook is one of those things that just doesn’t break. It gets an overhaul once a year (which takes all year incidentally) and it’s continually undergoing fine-tuning and polishing, and of course it gets an annual facelift. But deep down, it’s the same reliable handbook that nearly four decades of readers have enjoyed and depended on for up-to-date, factual and accurate information. And good reading, too. It is necessary reading for anyone investing, doing business, holidaying or residing in The Bahamas. ORDER NOW! |
