"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

Sturdy and well priced
Size: Large 1/2in x 6ft-Rope Clasp, Color: Black
Amazed at the great quality of this leash, very sturdy and reasonably priced. I use it for off leash training, as a leash drag and miraculously it does not pick up any trail debris.

Solid value!
Size: Large 1/2in x 6ft-Rope Clasp, Color: Orange, Size: Large 1/2in x 6ft-Rope Clasp, Color: Orange
Nice quality leash, good price. Clasp is heavy duty and should handle beach duty. Would buy again in another color.

It is indeed comfortable
Size: Large 1/2in x 6ft-Rope Clasp, Color: Light Blue
I really like this leash. The color is vibrant and I have experienced zero fading even though I leave it outside. I really appreciate the padded handle and the entire leash is a good substantial weight - I hate a flimsy leash. I would not hesitate to purchase this again if needed.
