This landmark book explores how Spain tried to come to terms with independent Indians on the frontiers of its American empire in the late 1700s. "[An] important new book...It displays ...a mastery of the literature and impressive erudition; a capacity for the patient teasing out of the truth from sources that are often incomplete and partisan; and a lucid narrative style that carries the reader along...A formidable achievement."-J. H. Elliott, New York Review of Books "A stunning book that will be read for generations and lauded for its awesome research, judicious analysis, and graceful prose."-James Schofield Saeger, Lehigh University |
