Description: "Uses primary documents and contemporary literature to flesh out the 'other '98,' the more human aspects of the change in Puerto Rico's sovereignty. Although she covers the expected themes - political dislocations, worker unrest, the 1899 hurricane, emigration, modifications in trade policy, agricultural restructuring, educational reform -, she focuses on people's reactions to change and the daily struggle to adjust to circumstances, rather than on government-level decisions and macro effects"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
