While I appreciate the author for writing about the history of the Taínos, this book was poorly written.

The entire book is all over the place. There is no flow or structure. It was very frustrating. The author will talk about one thing then in the next sentence jump to a new idea without introducing the subject.

There were also many typos and poor grammar.
