For most of its history, Puerto Rico has been a country overwhelmed by powerful, sometimes imperial, influences. First Spain, then the United States, have wielded power over the small island. The informed traveler, however, will find Puerto Rico wielding a strange and magical power of its own. Entrancing geography spins on sort of spell, as blue Caribbean waves crash on golden beaches, which in turn quickly give way to breathtaking mountains. A rich Spanish heritage exists peacefully next door to fastpaced international banking centers. Insight Rico takes the adventurous tourist into weird, dwarfish formation of the karst country; through the colorful streets of Old San Juan; below the ocean's surface into the richly populated waters of the Caribbean. APA Publications' writers and photographers have created a vivid and exciting portrait of Puerto Rico.
