Book Reviews of The Tainos: Rise and Decline of the People Who Greeted Columbus
Book Review: Taino history
Summary: 2 Stars
This book is quite outdated. It still seem to think that Tainos became extinct. After testing the DNA of hundreds of Puerto Ricans, it was discovered that the reports of extinction were highly (very) exagerated. Not a surprise for those of us who knew better. Still there is some information that is still valid, just don't swear by it.
