Abstract
Trinidad & Tobago are the two most southerly of the Caribbean islands off the coast of Venezuela. Trinidad is industrial, having natural deposits of oil, gas and bitumen, while Tobago is a tropical holiday island, sometimes known as Robinson Crusoe Island. The population of 1.3 million represents races from Africa, India, Europe and Asia, who live and work together harmoniously; Trinidadian women are renowned for their beauty, resulting from this rich mix. The centre of Trinidad is heavily forested and-apart from the capital, Port-of-Spain-the towns are small and rural in character. Fruit grows abundantly, especially mangoes, bananas, pineapples, citrus fruits, paw-paw and coconuts.
