| Summary | "Spanish America, Its Romance, Reality and Future, Vol. 2 (of 2)" by C. Reginald Enock is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume explores the complex narratives surrounding Spanish America, focusing specifically on Colombia, Venezuela, and the Amazon Valley. It aims to dissect the romanticized perception of these regions while addressing their realities and the potential for future development. At the start of the work, the author introduces Cartagena, Colombia, reflecting on its historical significance as a once-wealthy port city affected by buccaneers during the Spanish colonial era. The narrative outlines the challenging journey to Bogotá from Cartagena, emphasizing the varied landscapes and cultures encountered along the way. Enock highlights the contrasts in Colombia’s geography and society, showcasing its rich natural resources and historical ties to both indigenous and colonial pasts. As he paints a vivid picture of the Colombian and Venezuelan scenes, he also points to the underlying social issues that have persisted post-independence, setting the stage for a broader exploration of Spanish America throughout the volume.
