First, Justin Lewis was instrumental in providing logistical support in The Bahamas and by providing introductions to guides and lodge managers on several islands. Georgina Delancy, Director of Research and Statistics, Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, has graciously worked with us on supplying custom data analysis from several of the Ministry’s tourism surveys. Her quick and thorough response to our data requests is greatly appreciated. Finally, I would like to thank all the guides and lodge owners and managers throughout The Bahamas who supported this project by providing fishing information, insights on fishing in their region, and referrals to guides and lodges not on our initial lists. Their commitment and support were the backbone of the project.

  • PRESERVATION and the FUTURE of the BAHAMIAN PAST: a CASE STUDY of SAN SALVADOR ISLAND's HISTORIC RESOURCES by CHRISTOPHER C. J
    PRESERVATION AND THE FUTURE OF THE BAHAMIAN PAST: A CASE STUDY OF SAN SALVADOR ISLAND’S HISTORIC RESOURCES by CHRISTOPHER C. JACKSON (Under the Direction of Cari Goetcheus) ABSTRACT While the material remains of past human activity and the evolution of traditional cultural activities have been the focus of much scholarship regarding the history of The Bahamas, very little has been said regarding preservation, promotion and interpretation of such resources. Experiencing spaces, places and activities associated with specific strands of history offer the Bahamian observer unique opportunities to gain insights into their own culture and character. This thesis explores the wealth of cultural heritage resources on San Salvador Island in order to analyze how such resources could be managed to affectively reveal the breadth of The Bahamas’ unique history and culture.
