Boigu Island lies just six kilometres off the Papua New Guinea coast. The elders of this small island community have taken the initiative in writing down their history and culture to ensure that there is a permanent record.

Their book is a lively collection of writings from the past and present, including stories of brave warriors and traditional customs, of love and hope, of everyday experiences and practices, of business enterprises and industrial disputes, of friendships and religious influences.
