The Lucayan Sea: Birthplace of the Americas

The Lucayan Sea-Birthplace of the Americas (2nd Edition) shares unique insights about the founding of the Americas' heritage off the shores of The Bahamas and Turks and Caicos Islands. As the second book of the trilogy titled The Lucayan Sea: A Case for Naming the Historic Waters of The Bahamas and Turks and Caicos Islands, this book tells the story of the modern Americas' unfolding and proposes naming the seas (the unnamed historic waters) of these Lucayan Islands. Furthermore, it proposes that the naming of these waters be done as a tribute to the Lucayans, the first to suffer total genocide at the dawning of the Americas. It also advocates naming these waters as a tribute to the indigenous people's history, the Native Americans, enslaved Africans, and others who had suffered or died as a result of "humanity's inhumanity to humanity" during the Americas' early history.
