Twenty-one years ago, Evelyn Atkins and her sister Babs actually did what thousands have dreamed of. They brought an island. They seized an opportunity, re-arranged their lives, sold up, packed their worldly goods and moved. That story was told in Evelyn's delightful 'We Brought An Island'. Now comes the sequel, the story of their island years, the humour and the harsh realities, the strange encounters with humans, with animals and objects, the balmy, blue-skied days that bring the visitors and the storm-swept weeks that stop the supplies. It is the story of a dream that has come true and a life where everyday may, and most likely will, bring a touch of the unexpected.
