Description: "Using information gathered by Governor Francisco Manuel de Lando in 1530, author compares San Juan and San Germán, the two Spanish settlements in Puerto Rico. Statistical tables corroborate that social stratification responded to availability of thousands of Indian workers, Indian and African slaves, and presence of a few hundred government officials and colonists in high and low occupations. Pamphlet includes a full transcription of the document itself"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
