"Where the Sea had an Ending" is an attempt to produce a different kind of travel book about the West Indies. It is the result of a long love affair with the region by the author. It also gives the views of a number of different travellers including Christopher Colombus and Charles Kingsley.


"Macmillan Primary English for Rwanda" is a six-level course for Rwandan primary schools. It introduces the structures and functions of English throughout a variety of stimulating activities. The early levels focus on building vocabulary, listening and speaking, as well as introducing reading and writing. At the upper levels, these skills are developed and practised through more demanding work in cross-curricular contexts. Each level provides: a pupil's book - illustrated in full colour throughout; and a teacher's book - with detailed lessons plans and ideas for further activities.
