520    "Crawford begins in the sixteenth century, laying out the 
       stakes for the British and Spanish empires that first 
       viewed the Caribbean as "an Atlantic commons"--An open 
       space where all could compete to control diverse Caribbean
       peoples, lands, and waters and exploit the region's raw 
       materials. Turning to the nineteenth and twentieth 
       centuries, Crawford traces and connects the expansion and 
       decline of turtle hunting to matters of race, labor, 
       political and economic change, and the natural 
       environment. Like the turtles they had chased, the 
       boundary-flouting laborers exposed the limits of states' 
       sovereignty for a time, but ultimately they lost their 
       livelihoods, having played a significant role in 
       legislation delimiting maritime boundaries. Still, today, 
       former turtlemen have found their deep knowledge valued in
       efforts to protect sea turtles and recover the region's 
       ecological sustainability"--|cProvided by publisher
