The book is part of the series Historia de las Antillas, History of the Antilles published by the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas de Espana, based in Madrid. A first History of Cuba was released in 2009.
The series seeks to contribute to the understanding of what unites the Caribbean in its diversity and the colonial influence in the past and present. It focuses on how factors such as slavery, racial mingling, music and religion can lead to unity in the Caribbean and how they give rise to different realities.
Limited copies are available for sale at the Libreria La Trinitaria and Mateca bookshops in Santo Domingo.
