Summary
"This book tells the story of that dispute between Britain and Holland as the metropoles of Guyana and Suriname, and then between the neighbours themselves as they became independent. It explains the process of peaceful settlement in 2007 through arbitration, and of the triumph of UNCLOS (the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea) in enabling it. It is a story over four centuries from Raleigh and the 'wild Guiana coast' to the ascendancy of the legal regime of the seas that UNCLOS represents"--Jacket
