Description: |
This is a one-volume history of Latin America covering the 19th and 20th centuries. As such, it is largely concerned with the modern period dating from the Wars of Independence in the early 19th century to the late 20th century. |
Synopsis: |
Written specifically for students unfamiliar with Latin American history, this comprehensive narrative introduction spans from the early nineteenth century to the end of the twentieth century. The authors present main theories and analyses of the area's history, expertly weaving biographical sketches into the narrative. "Action-introductions" begin each chapter, offering short glimpses into moments in history and setting the theme for the chapter to follow. Maps, images, bibliographies, discussion questions, and other pedagogical elements are strategically placed throughout to help students move beyond the introductory level and engage in research assignments, papers, and so on. |
