The novel takes place during the time of the Spanish conquest of the Americas, and Rolf finds himself caught up in the conflict between the Spanish colonizers and the Arawaks. Along the way, he learns about the Arawak culture and their struggles against the Spanish, as well as the beauty and danger of the island's natural environment.The Last Of The Arawaks is a thrilling adventure story that combines history, culture, and nature. It provides readers with a vivid portrayal of life on the island of San Domingo during a significant period in history.
