An Island to Oneself

Tom Neal spent 17 years alone at Suwarrow atol.

"They were very happy days. I was never lonely, though now and again I would walk along the reef wishing somebody could be with me - not because I wanted company but just because all this beauty seemed too perfect to keep to myself."
