"Distinguished historians Meyer and Beezley have brought together
an outstanding collection of essays on Mexican history, culture,
and society....The individual contributions are crisp and
stimulating; each stands well on its own and can be assigned and
read singly with profit. Editors and authors have so nicely meshed
these contributions one to the next that the book can be assigned
or read almost as a single, comprehensive overview of centuries of
Mexico
history.--Choice
