The Last Island
''The Last Island: A Naturalist's Sojourn on Triangle Island'' is a non-fiction memoir, written by Canadian writer Alison Watt, first published in September 2002 by Harbour Publishing. In the book, the author chronicles her return to Triangle Island, a bird sanctuary off the northern tip of Vancouver Island. Watt spent four months studying tufted puffins with her mentor Anne Vallee, returning 16 years later after Vallee's death. ''The Last Island'' is critically acclaimed as written in "beautiful language combined with watercolour paintings" with the power to "transport the reader to the island".〔Faculty of Arts, 2003, (Edna Staebler Award ), ''Wilfrid Laurier University'', Previous winners, Alison Watt, Retrieved 11/27/2012〕
