Publisher Description: In 1994, Andrew Gurr was perusing the employment pages of the "Sunday Times" when an advertisement caught his eye: "Wanted: Chief Executive of the Falkland Islands Government." Intrigued, he decided to follow it up. Nobody was more surprised than Andrew when, a few months later, he was offered the position. What followed was 5 remarkable years on a remarkable island, doing the most curious job that can be imagined. |
