Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the Unravelling of US Empire

[Judi Lynn]

7. After seeing your comment, looked up a summary of the book, and it sounds excellent.

It covers material we just didn't get in public schools, and it's all totally important to anyone who realizes the need for an accurate grasp of what has happened.

Wanted to mention that for a long time, the U.S. saw Puerto Rico in exactly the same light as Cuba, and it was assumed the U.S. would control Cuba forever, just as it has with Puerto Rico.



It sounds as if "How to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United States" could reward a reader with some important information which could go a long way toward putting together a much more accurate foundation for understanding the US and Latin American policy.

Thanks for the recommendation.
