Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Puerto Rico and Its Resources While the writer has always held a preface to be in its very nature a work of supererogation, yet, having told all he knows about Puerto Rico, in this book of facts, he is called upon to write an ex post facto introductory. Having exhausted his own stock of information, then, and having presented the gist of what his predecessors in the same field may have garnered, it only remains, perhaps, to tell why he did it, and to mention what had been done before him. His acquaintance with the island dates from 1880, when he visited every port of importance, and his interest was deepened when, as West-Indian Commissioner for the Columbian Exposition, he revisited its shores. It was not, however, until the present year that opportunity offered for presenting the result of his observations at different times, when the recent war with Spain directed public attention to the subject.
