Strategic Book Publishing and Strategic Talk Radio presents--
Atoll life is lonely, even when surrounded by the abundance of the sea. But it is here that man’s indomitable will conquered the sea in an epic drift aboard a canoe; it is here that massive schools of tuna find their way after migrating across the vast Pacific.
Since the days of the early islanders, change has always come to the central Pacific violently: when the second world war reached the islands, they became battleground, the scars of which they still carry; when the islands were used as testing grounds for atomic bombs, its people became military guinea pigs; and, most recently, the prospect of global warming threatens to erase the islands from the map entirely.
Here, all the players in this rich drama have a voice and a story to tell.
Above all, Islands of the Frigate Bird is the magnificent saga of the people of the central Pacific—people who have battled every type of political, commercial and cultural onslaught from outsiders in order to retain their identity.
About the Author Author Daryl Tarte is a lifelong Fiji resident living in the capital city of Suva. An accomplished writer, Daryl has published three novels, a biography, a coffee table book and a history of 20th century Fiji. Islands of the Frigate Bird was inspired by the lack of stories told from the perspective of the exploited people of the Central Pacific. Daryl has been happily married for 51 years and is the proud father of two.

The book starts by asking what is creative aging? And suggests it involves a long process that grows from all of life’s experience, if you have the courage to learn the lessons given to you by your own unique life journey. It shows how difficult it is to age positively in a culture that denies and denigrates aging. The author, at age 85, uses her own experience and that of others she has known, to suggest ways of examining the life experience, so that lessons can be learned. Thus, older people become ‘elders’ growing in their own wisdom and contributing with that wisdom to their families and communities. About the Author Ruby Millar Abrahams was born and lived in Britain until she moved to the U.S in 1959. During World War II she served in the Women’s Royal Naval Service. She graduated from the London School of Economics with a BA in sociology, then a Master’s in social work. In the U.S. she graduated with an MA in sociology from Columbia University. After a stint in theater (London) and television (New York), her professional life included research in health and geriatric care at Harvard and Tufts Medical Schools, then at the Institute for Health Policy at Brandeis University (geriatric studies). During this time, she published several book chapters and research articles in professional journals, and also gave presentations at gerontological conferences. She retired in 1993 and later moved to Florida for seven years, then to Portland, Oregon. Her memoir, “An Unintended Life”, was published in 2001.
