Juan Jose Baldrich brings together a wealth of information to produce a longue-duree Puerto Rican tobacco history, melding the political, economic, and social-cultural, and embracing class and gender, while also interweaving individual stories that bring the narrative to life. Such an all-encompassing book on Puerto Rican tobacco history is long overdue and long awaited from an author who is the recognized leading authority on Puerto Rican tobacco.--Jean Stubbs, author of Tobacco on the Periphery: A Case Study in Cuban Labor History, 1860-1958
