Summary: "La Anexión de Puerto-Rico a los Estados Unidos de America" by Juan B. Nieves is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This book delves into the complex political and social issues surrounding Puerto Rico's annexation by the United States, exploring the implications of this shift for the island's people. Nieves provides a detailed perspective on the attitudes toward independence and American governance during a time of significant change. In this work, Nieves engages in a dialogue with a friend, addressing crucial questions about the future of Puerto Rico in the aftermath of its annexation. He argues against independence, citing the island's limited resources and historical precedents that suggest independence leads to instability. Rather, he advocates for integration with the United States as a means of achieving prosperity and stability, while critiquing the conduct of Puerto Ricans during the transition period. Nieves emphasizes the importance of adapting to new circumstances and moving forward, urging readers to abandon past grievances in favor of a collaborative future under American governance.
