Excerpt from The Country We Forgot He grew apathetic. Were they near Porto Rico? No, he didn't intend to visit them - only well-known places were on his itinerary. There were Americans on the boat whose business took them to Porto Rico. The man who sold tractors did not think there was a sufficient market for them in the Virgin Islands to justify a side trip to them from San Juan. The Hebrew clothing salesman on his annual trip through the West Indies did not see enough business in sight in this new American territory to pay him to make the trip. Americans located in Porto Rico praised the hospitality of the people of the Three Virgins, but really, it would be better for a person to spend his whole time in seeing San Juan, Ponce, and other Porto Rican towns. It seemed not so much the country we had forgotten, but instead, the country of which we had never heard.
