"Caribbean" by James Michener (Original Paperbook collectible) Introduction
"Caribbean" by James Michener (Original 1989 Paperbook edition collectible)
"Remarkable" says Washington Post, "A grand epic," the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "Michener is a master (storyteller) ... readers cannot help but fall under the spell of the islands," exclaimed the Boston Herald. With 700 years of dramatic history chronicled among 811 pages "teeming with revolution and romance, slavery and superstition, heartfelt characters and thunderous destinies," starting with the 1310 conquest of the Arawak indigenous people and the decline of the Mayan empire to Haiti's bloody slave revolt, the fall of colonialism and rise of Fidel Castro with buccaneers like the notorious Henry Morgan thrown in, "Caribbean" brings you a "utterly engaging," swashbuckling ride. "History to greatly enlighten you, and even shock," says Kijiji Steve.
