Este libro cuenta la historia de un mundo en transformación y de una sociedad, la peruana, que ansiaba una vida mejor.

By 1900, two major rail lines served the area's thriving citrus industry. Duarte's beneficial climate led to the establishment in 1913 of a tuberculosis sanitarium, which became City of Hope, the world-class cancer treatment center. Bandleader Glenn Miller settled in...
