Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Ex-library with the usual library markings (if not for the library markings this copy would be graded in fine condition); overall a nice used copy! Full-color pictorial boards with black and white lettering. 170 historical and informative pages nicely enhanced by black and white photographs and illustrations! "This exciting addition to the Culture and Customs of Latin America and the Caribbean series provides readers with an all-encompassing look at contemporary life in Puerto Rico. Having always been under the watchful eyes of other colonies and countries, Puerto Rico's own customs and traditions have managed to flourish throughout the ages, culturally uniting what is a politically divided island. In addition to gaining an understanding of Puerto Rico's political relationship with the continental United States, students can explore extensive narrative chapters that cover contemporary religion, cuisine, sports, media, cinema, literature, performing arts, and visual arts. An essential for high school and public library shelves, Culture and Customs of Puerto Rico is the perfect research resource for students and general readers.
