For centuries, a couple of hundred people eked out a living on Gola from fishing and subsistence farming. But by the 1950s, the island could no longer compete with the economic opportunities offered by the mainland. Gradually, Gola's families stripped their houses, boarded their boats and sailed away. You can hear about Gola's resuscitation in this week's Inbox

 

In this week’s program: The history and future of Gola is of especial interest to Carl Gola based in the United States of America whose grandfather is believed to have been born in Ireland – Jaisak Thivel of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India is interested in hearing about Germany’s highest mountain, the Zugspitze -- Fr. Stephen Wara sends his greetings and his thanks in acknowledgement of receiving a Grundig Yacht Boy 80 radio -- your last chance to catch the June Question of the Month
