The celebrated tramp-traveller goes island-hopping, by every means but walking, around the Caribbean in the early 1920s. He sketches Havana and the Cuban sugar country, the Haitian bush during the American occupation and the death of the rebel Charlemagne Péralte, the Dominican Republic under military government, Puerto Rico and the islands beyond.
Lively, opinionated travel writing, valuable as a record of the region a century ago, though its racial attitudes are very much of 1920. Download the free EPUB.
