This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1919 edition. Excerpt: ...American dishes, and heavy meals of numerous imported vegetables, cereals, meat, and canned goods are served at every meal. It is comparatively seldom that odd native vegetables are served or that any fruit, save oranges or bananas, are seen on the table. For this reason the smaller native hostelries are preferable if one really desires to sample native food, but this may be done to better advantage in some of the many good restaurants. In San Juan and Ponce there are numerous large cafes or restaurants, where lunches, dinners, etc., may be obtained, and where splendid chocolate and delicious coffee, tasty cakes, biscuits, sweetmeats, and excellent ice-cream may be had. Everywhere are little stores, kiosks, and cafes, where one may obtain iced drinks, sodawater, and excellent beer, made on the island. These soft drinks are all good; they are pure, refreshing, and are usually preferable to locaj water, although Porto Rico water is as a rule perfectly safe to drink. Several mineral springs on the island furnish sparkling vichy-like water, which is for sale in every town, and such brands as "Pastilla" may be used with absolute confidence. Cocoanut water from green cocoanuts, known as "Cocos de Agua," is cooling and refreshing, and may be taken as frequently and as freely as one desires. Nearly all the native fruits are healthy, and many of them are cooling and nourishing. To appreciate some tropical fruits and vegetables, the Northerner must cultivate an acquired taste, but good oranges, grapefruit, pineapples, and bananas are always available. The cost of living in Porto Rico depends largely upon how one lives. If you insist on American food and subsist upon imported things, the cost of living is high, whereas if you can...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently revised to include the latest current events, this classic reference presents the historical, social, political, and cultural aspects of Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico, an island rich with culture and national pride, continues to inspire debate over its designation as a commonwealth of the United States. This updated edition of a popular encyclopedia captures important historical, social, political, and cultural developments of the oldest colony in the world, up to and including the region's current status in relation to the United States. The fascinating work is full of facts, figures, and narratives of the struggles, achievements, and creations of the Puerto Rican people. Essays highlight the area's economy, geography, religion, education, language, radio, television, social media, and films. A focus on the contributions of key historical figures showcase the stories of Ramon Power y Giralt, the first envoy to the Spanish Courts; and Juan Mari Brás, founder of the Puerto Rican Socialist Party, among others. The second edition features recent developments in the commonwealth, including the election of its first female governor, the introduction of the first sales tax, and the financial crisis that shut down schools.

Book excerpt: Van Middledyk's work was the first major historical study of Puerto Rico in English. Van Middledyk advanced Puerto Rican historiography by building on the works of Brau, Coll y Toste, and Acosta, and by consulting early Spanish chronicles. A librarian at the Free Public Library of San Juan, Van Middledyk possessed knowledge of and access to considerable primary source material. His history is sympathetic to the Indians and highly critical of Spanish colonial administration. Coming in the wake of American military occupation, the book sought to explain and justify control of the island by the United States.

Download or read book Puerto Rico Past and Present written by Ronald Fernandez and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ready reference guide to more than 500 years of political, social, economic, and cultural development in Puerto Rico fills a conspicuous information gap. It rectifies what has been to date a lack of easily accessible, accurate, and relevant information in English about Puerto Rico and its 3.6 million inhabitants. From African roots to El Yunque (Puerto Rico's tropical rain forest), this encyclopedia offers nearly 300 substantive entries on important people, places, events, social and political issues, legislation, movements and organizations, and terms and concepts. Entries underscore the history, achievements, and creations of the Puerto Rican people. Each entry concludes with a short list of suggested reading for further information. A selection of photos enhances the text. Included are biographical entries on historical figures and political leaders, as well as poets, novelists, painters, musicians, and artists who have contributed to Puerto Rican culture. Entries on events crucial to the development of Puerto Rico and its relationship to the United States over the last one hundred years, including its political status, will help the reader to understand the complex nature of the ties that bind the United States and Puerto Rico. Also included are entries devoted to individuals or events that have heretofore received little attention in Puerto Rican history, such as the feminism movement. The authors, faculty members at the Center for Caribbean Studies at Central Connecticut State University, are specialists in the history and culture of Puerto Rico. The encyclopedia belongs on the shelves of every school and public library that has ever fielded a question on Puerto Rico.
