A
Trip to the Beach (Clarkson Potter) chronicles Bob and Melinda’s
adventures as they start a new life in Anguilla. The couple quickly
realizes that living the simple life isn’t so simple. Adapting to quirky
island customs, building a successful business and coping with the
devastation of a major hurricane are just some of the challenges they face
along the way. But with the hardships come blessings. Bob and Melinda meet
island friends who quickly become family, discovering there’s so much more
to Anguilla’s beauty than pristine beaches and glorious sunsets.
