Riassunto

Focuses on the development of Cuba, Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic during the time of deteriorating British influence in the region and the underlying transformations in the balance of power. Demonstrates how the events of these decades were sparked by tensions between Creole elites, free blacks and slaves, and by the colonial bureaucracies of Europe. Covers the regional impact of the US Civil War; dual colonialism in Cuba and Puerto Rico; and the United States' early economic interests in the region. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
