About the Book

The cloud forest on the tiny island of Saba in the Northeastern Caribbean is unique in the region, but little scientific research has been conducted. The author, a biologist and conservationist who has resided on the island since 1986, has compiled available information on the cloud forest and supplemented this with his own observations. In particular he describes the impact of major hurricanes and how the forest evolved following these hurricanes. In the absence of other scientific research the author's unique observations provide you with a fascinating narrative of the relationship between natural calamities and the environment.
About the Author: Tom van't Hof is a biologist and conservationist who has lived on Saba since 1986. He was responsible for the development of the marine parks in Bonaire, Curacao and Saba. As a private consultant he was involved in numerous conservation projects around the world. Economics and financing of marine protected areas became his field of special interest. He was co-founder of the Saba Conservation Foundation and functioned as its chairman for almost 10 years. He is the author of "The Nature of Saba" and of several marine park guidebooks. Together with his family he founded the Ecolodge Rendez-Vous in 2002. He retired in 2009, but he and his wife Heleen Cornet have no intention to move.
