Synopsis: |
This work brings together some of the most perceptive observations of Cuba by 19th-century travellers from America and Europe. This century saw Cuba struggling to emerge as a modern nation; hence, these travel accounts give us a first-hand view of how modernisation directly affected those living in Cuba. A broad spectrum of topics are addressed - the sugar plantations, Cuban rural and urban society, slavery, hospitals, social life and Havana. |
