Reviews

"Colonial Latin America provides a solid narrative structure, yet it does not overwhelm students with a chronology of 'things happening.' The book's writing style is one of its greatest strengths: it is readable, understandable, and clear. This is the best one-volume text on the colonial period in Latin America."--David Castle, Ohio State University
"The text is venerable because it works. It provides students with broad spatial and chronological panoramas that will help them make fuller sense of each and every topic pertaining to early Latin America."--Robert Ferry, University of Colorado
