This handbook is a collection of readings intended to acquaint Peace Corps volunteers with the geography, history, and culture of the Gilbert Islands. Some of the readings are in English, but most are in Kiribati. Four of the Kiribati readings are accompanied by linear translations; the others have English summaries. The concluding parts of the book include maps, a gazatteer, population census information, and plant names. The text is illustrated with pen-and-ink drawings. (AMH)
