The Bonin / Ogasawara Islands - A Land Far Far Away

On the Bonin or Ogasawara Islands, more than 600 miles and 25 hours by ferry from the mainland, Joseph partakes of kayaking, snorkeling, trekking and whale watching. His personal discoveries among the islanders, whose roots lie in an American past, open up a world still shrouded in mystery and little-known to the casual day tripper.
