Beautifully rendered book, with gorgeous illustrations. There are very few quality materials (at least in English) out there on the Taino or other pre-European Contact societies of the Caribbean and this book addresses this void. It brings together the writing of a variety of anthropologists and authors, ordering the entries and a logical manner that flows well from one entry to the other. Highly recommend
