An unforgettable glimpse into the extraordinary diversity of cultures that compose Puerto Rico
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Puerto Rico Inside and Out: Changes and Continuities is an anthology of essays by historian and columnist Fernando Pico, covering topics ranging from police harassment of Puerto Rican dissenters in the early 1970's to in-depth portraits of how Puerto Rican rural landscapes and cultural traditions have been vanishing. Most of the essays span the years from 1969-1980 (only four essays reminisce from later vantage points up to 1987); are from an up-close and personal perspective, while others reflect from the vantage point of Paris, France. An unforgettable glimpse into the extraordinary diversity of cultures that compose Puerto Rico in general and San Juan in particular, Puerto Rico Inside and Out is highly recommended.
