Publisher's Synopsis

In The Tropics: By A Settler In Santo Domingo is a book written by Joseph Warren Fabens. The book is a memoir of Fabens' experience as a settler in Santo Domingo, a Caribbean island nation. Fabens describes the tropical climate, the people, the culture, and the natural beauty of the island. He also writes about the challenges he faced as a settler, including the difficulty of finding suitable land for farming and the struggle to establish a successful plantation. Fabens gives an account of the political situation in Santo Domingo at the time, including the conflicts between the Haitian and Dominican governments. The book provides a unique perspective on life in Santo Domingo in the mid-19th century, and is a valuable historical document.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
