About

In 1921 Arthur Grimble, leaving his wife and children, returned to the Gilbert and Ellice Islands of the Pacific, and to the charming local people and duties as commissioner with the colonial service. It would be 7 years before he would see his children again. Return to the Islands tells the story of his life there. In England this book has been described as "a little masterpiece" and "a remarkable record".

Illustrated throughout with numerous monochrome line drawings.
