Product Description
The book, organized into ten historically-arranged parts, begins with the Island's discovery and settlement by the Spanish. It ends with the Operation Bootstrap program for industrialization, the development of a Commonwealth status, the mass migration of Hispanos to the United States after World War II, which resulted, in the editors' adroit phrase, in a 'divided nation.
