About the book
There are two linked themes in this book: the grinding down of the aborigines during the long rivalries of the foolish El Dorado quest; and then two hundreds years later, in the man-made wilderness, the man-made horror of the new slave colony. The Caribbean slave plantations were thought at the time to be more brutal than American, and this book takes us as close as we can get to day-to-day life in the slave colony.
