Here in Brazil, I read this short, concise and easy to read book, about the Comores Islands. There's these main qualities of this book:
1- This book is very concise, short and easy to understand. I read all of it, in less than four hours.
2- There's many photos in this book.
3- Cover and paper with good quality, even being printed in 1985.
4- There's enough information about Mayotte island. See pages 33 to 37.
5- Between 91 to 93, this book shows some of the problems for tourists in the Comores islands.

There's some problems in this book:
1- Even showing that more than 99% of Comoreans are Islamics (page 54), this book isn't so good about the consequences of Islam to tourists in these islands.
2- There's just one map (pages 6 and 7) in this book. And this map, even having color, has weak quality.
3- Being printed in 1985, this book is a little outdated about politics in Comores today. Just a little, because such all Islamics countries in the world, Comores a poor country, a cleptocracy and a tiranny.
