4.9/5 (10508 ratings)

Description:The noted Cuban historian and scholar Ramiro Guerra y Sánchez wrote a series of newspaper articles that was published in book form in Cuba in 1927. Now translated into English, it is of special importance to American readers in that it is a nonpolitical and restrained presentation of the conditions that exist in a society entirely dominated by a single industry and a single crop. Although the book deals with Cuba primarily, the large-scale plantation system it describes has had similar effects on many of the Caribbean peoples—effects that are political, psychological, and religious, as well as social and economic. In view of the present events [circa 1964] in Cuba, it is illuminating to have an account of the social setting that preceded the coming of Castro, by an observer who was pleading no cause but the welfare of the Cuban people.—from the front flap of the dust jacketForward by Sidney W.
