Lize B. (msflorida) reviewed A must read for those who will cruise the Caribbean on 4/11/2009 + 18 more book reviews

James Michener is a writer's writer. He weaves history fact and fiction into his books. I began the book before a cruise but did not get it finished until I returned home - it is more than 800 pages long. Each chapter, however is separate yet ties into the whole. Visiting Panama and the town of Portobella, I had a greater appreciation of the history of the place.
