The acquisition of Puerto Rico as a colony in 1898 prompted the interest of many in the United States, who visited the island and documented their experiences for the benefit of future visitors. In this book, Ligia T. Domenech exposes the distorted mirror turned on Puerto Rico, one constructed through the eyes of foreigners.
