The Commonwealth of the Bahamas
The country is an Atlantic archipelago of 700 coral islands and cays straddling the Tropic of Cancer. She has been independent from England since 1973, although Queen Elizabeth 11 of the Bahamas, through a Royal Governor, remains the titular Head of State. Her abundant resources of sand, sea and climate make the country a premier tourist destination.
Bahamians also have a rich, genetic heritage, and their hybrid vigour has brought them success in science, the arts and athletics.
Although the Country’s population is only 300,000+, statisticians have declared the Bahamas Team to be the winner of the ‘2000 Olympic Games’.
‘Passing Jacks’ paints word pictures of our people and our islands. It will prepare visitors for their Bahamian experience, and it will remind Bahamians of who and what they are:
