The Early History of Cuba 1492-1586 is a comprehensive historical account of the island of Cuba during the period of European colonization. Written by Irene Aloha Wright, the book explores the arrival of Christopher Columbus in 1492 and the subsequent Spanish conquest of the island. It delves into the early interactions between the indigenous Taino people and the Spanish explorers and settlers, as well as the impact of European diseases on the native population. The book also covers the establishment of the first Spanish settlements on the island, including the town of Baracoa, and the development of the sugar industry that would become a major part of Cuba's economy. It examines the role of African slaves in the development of the island and the rise of the plantation system. Throughout the book, Wright provides a detailed analysis of the political, social, and economic factors that shaped Cuba during this period. She also explores the impact of piracy and the constant threat of attacks from other European powers. Overall, The Early History of Cuba 1492-1586 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Cuba and the broader history of European colonization in the Americas. With its detailed research and engaging writing style, it offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal period in Cuba's past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
