The perfect hybrid

A unique combination of travel, history, and recipes of the region. The author knows the flavors of the Caribbean have been influenced by conquest and unravels the layers of European, African and Asian influences on the staples of these beautiful islands and on the original Amerindian population. The glossary of unusual foods and spices is excellent as are the anecdotes on everything from coffee and rum to conch and coconuts.
