• Panama

• Author David M. Armstrong
• Published by Lucent Books

As a land bridge between the Americas and a passageway between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, Panama has always played a vital role in bringing worlds together. Today, Panama embraces its role as an avenue of international commerce while attempting to preserve the balance of culture, ecology and government.

Review:

"The book details the country's climate, geography, agriculture, industry, daily life in both rural and urban areas, and arts and culture. The book features maps, black-and-white photographs, and special boxes...The book's final pages offer a set of facts-at-a-glance, a detailed chronology, an annotated bibliography including works for both children and adults, an annotated list of works consulted (including web sites), and an index."
-- Multi-Cultural Review (March 2001)
