"A penetrating analysis of the social, political, sexual, and cultural worlds that exist behind the four-color Caribbean travel posters. . . . Page after page of highly original insights."--Kirkus Reviews In this richly detailed portrait of the individual countries and peoples of the Caribbean, Mark Kurlansky brings to life a society and culture often kept hidden from foreigners-the arts, history, politics, and economics of the region, as well as the vivid day-to-day lives of its citizens. From the Newyoriccans of Levittown, Puerto Rico; to the state-salaried popular musicians of Cuba; to the practitioners of good political hurricanemanship (who know how to stretch statistics to bring in relief funds), A Continent of Islands paints portraits that will prove equally fascinating to tourists who know the Caribbean only as a string of beach resorts, and to readers curious about U.S. efforts to influence its neighbors.Binding Type: Paperback

Little bit on the small side
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black, Pocket Description: Plain Front
Run a little small, but the quality of the shirt seems to be pretty good. It is thick and nice. Warm and softness are both good.

Impressed for the most part
Size: X-Large, Color: White, Pocket Description: Plain Front
Going to give it 5-stars for now, well see how well they hold up after a few washes.
They for sure feel like nice heavy-weight shirts.
I like them alot for that reason.
They have a boxy-fit though, so not "fitted" at all but thats fine for me because I am using them as under-shirts.

Runs small
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy
Definitely go a size up. These run a whole size smaller than designated. Material is also heavier than a regular t-shirt. Quality seems okay
