A unique oral history of the Afro-Caribbean people who founded the communities of Cahuita, Puerto Viejo and Manzanillo on Costa Rica's Atlantic coast. The black, English-speaking villagers tell how their people settled and survived, how they built their communities and kept their Caribbean culture alive through periods of racial discrimination and social change. They talk about what "progress" means to them as tourism comes to their coastal communities. Includes maps and photographs.
