This book is a new edition of the most beautifully written history
of the Caribbean from the European discovery through the nineteenth
century. Commonweal wrote of the 1946 edition, "Arciniegas has
written a most informative and entertaining book...the student of
political and social morals will find in it much to ponder." The
New Republic concurred, writing, "Senor Arciniegas has a flair for
bits of colorful detail and the kind of gossip which makes history
come alive. Not the least of the book's virtues are a series of
thumbnail biographies of such figures as Amerigo Vespucci, Raleigh,
Toussaint, Miranda, Lafitte, William Walker and de Lessep." This
edition also features an introduction by Norman Arciniegas.
