This review is from: Banana Fallout: Class, Color, and Culture Among West Indians in Costa Rica (Afro-American Culture & Society) (Paperback)

This book along with the travelogue "Costa Rica : The Last Country the Gods Made" should be owned by anyone who loves Costa Rica, even if they think they despise social histories as deathly dull. This book's spirit is undeniable.
