From Rainforest to Cane Field in Cuba: An Environmental History since 1492 - Envisioning Cuba
Reinaldo Funes Monzote
Presents the environmental history of Cuba since the age of Columbus. This book emphasizes the two processes that have had a dramatic impact on the island's landscape: deforestation and sugar cultivation. It demonstrates how the sugar industry that came to define Cuba - and upon which Cuba depended - also devastated the ecology of the island.
