In Tales from La Isla del Encanto, author Haydée E. Reichard de Cancio opens the windows on episodes of Puerto Rico's past. The desolation of the Spanish conquest, the hope of the nineteenth-century struggle for autonomy, the Spanish-American War, and the more personal problems of the present are all vividly depicted. "Agueybana the Brave" conveys the nobility of a Boricuan native chief facing the onslaught of history. "The Sailboat" portrays a slave ship becalmed in a scene of cruelty. "The Village Nobleman" tells with pathos and "The Sombrer" with humor the desolation of the Spanish-American War. Puerto Rican history becomes immediate under this author's pen.
