This book traces the Caribbean from its pre-Columbian state through European contact and colonialism to the rise of U.S. hegemony and the economic turbulence of the twenty-first century. It begins with a discussion of the region's diverse geography and challenging ecology and features an in-depth look at the transatlantic slave trade.
