Puerto Rico Books

I have read many books about slave trafficking and this book is at the top of my list. It's a must read for everyone. It's painful, but realistic.

This is a wonderful, colorful book of all 51 flags of the states and Puerto Rico. I bought this because a friend in Italy requested a book with all the state flags of the USA. She needed it so she could make a quilt.
She will not be disappointed. The colors and the photos of the flags are first rate. There is also a short story about each state. Actually, every citizen of the United States should own a copy. 10 stars!

It's not too often that a book of solid governmental history captures the reader's attention and imagination like a great novel. The detail, colors, sounds and smells of Puerto Rico in the late 30's and early 40's come alive on the pages of this part autobiography, part historical account.

Anyone interested in the detailed history of Puerto Rico (in English) should without question read this book cover to cover. I only wish there were equal works for other Governorships and time periods. Truly an invaluable work by an extraordinary man.

Francisco Scarano is our Savior, our Messiah, Creator of everything. We must worship this Supreme Being in order that our souls be saved from the ternal flames of Hell. Please, convert now. If you do not convert... Scarano will take care of you. He knows how to punish infidels and ingrates...

They love this book, and it's taught them a lot about billy goats. They have been referencing billy goats a lot since getting the book, and they also really understood that the little, tiny bee was as capable of getting the billy goat out of the garden as the big animals. Beautiful illustrations that they sit and look at on their own. Well worth it.

Este volumen recoge los principios básicos de la moral de Hostos donde menciona que la divergencia entre entre el progreso material y el progreso moral es tan manifiesta que tiene la razon de dudar de la realidad de la civilización contemporanea. Los escritos de Hostos manifiestan las enseñanzas morales y de compromiso que deben existir en el deber del trabajo. El conocimiento de los deberes sociales fundan en el conocimiento las relaciones del individuo con la sociedad. El deber y el bien son fuerzas motrices de la filosofía moralista de Hostos. Sin moral no exixte el orden y sin deber no hay moral. Son enseñanzas que deben perdurar.

An excellent book dealing with taboo subject for many people. The author examines carefully the beginnings as well as the factors that contributed to racism in Puerto Rico TV and that could be said for most of latinamerican countries, a sad heritage from the same people who gave us TV and at the same time the seeds for the hated discrimination and a clear example was Amos n' Andy TV shows that took racism to the highest level that started with the movie "Birth of a nation".

We are deeply indebted to the author for this study and for letting us be aware of this malady that still persists more in our TV and less in american TV. It looks like our TV's czars were ready to embrace racism from the beginning and still that embrace is solid. Have you ever seen, for example, Colombia's TV through their main chains Caracol and RCN? Their anchors are white, blond youg women, the kind you see in the beauty pageants and the population itself is mostly a mix of indian, black and white.

By all means, buy this book and you'll learn a lot and take conscience of those who are feeding racism to our tv and maybe be selective and what you see and let's express our disagreement with those programs
