< Back To This Issue's Index > Blueprint for Paradise : How to Live on a Tropic Island By Ross Norgrove

15 Copies Left! We found fifteen (15) copies of Blueprint For Paradise by Ross Norgrove. These are the last remaining copies of one of our favorite books.  As you'll note in the writing below which was the original promotional material for this book, we bought the entire stock of this book a few years back. It quickly sold out.  Our distributor just found 15 copies that we didn't know about.  So here it is, the last 15 copies in the world, of one of the worlds better books.  You can only order this book by telephone, we can't use an online order form because once the 15 copies are gone no more orders can be placed.

This book is a gem.   Sections include choosing the right island to live on, (including little known secluded islands,) buying an island, building an island home, installing electricity and water systems, weathering:  hurricanes & tidal waves, sailing and boat building, adapting to the island lifestyle and more. It has blueprints for houses and numerous photographs. I really like this book!

How much do I like this book?  I liked it so much I bought the entire stock that the publisher had. If they would have had more, I would have taken more. When this book is gone it will no longer be available.  It is an absolute classic!   This is the greatest book I've run across in it's field.  An asset to any home library.
