The author provides extensive vocabularies and grammatical notes for each language, including Kala Lagaw Ya, Meriam Mir, and several others. The book is divided into sections, with each section focusing on a specific language. The author also includes a brief history of the Torres Strait and its people, as well as a discussion of the cultural and linguistic diversity of the region.
