The Colonial Heritage of Latin America: Essays on Economic Dependence in Perspective

Rating:
Summary: Read this in a quiet place
Review: I had to read this book for a history course. I would suggest to everyone who reads this book to do so in a quiet place with no distractions. Keep a dictionary handy. There is so much information that you should read this one section at a time. For those of you doing a research project it is a good book to have. Lots of interesting statistics but not fun to read.

Summary: Stands the test of time
Review: This book is perhaps the finest, most concise single volume in English on the subject of colonial Latin America. It is probably a tough read for undergraduates, but it is a great source for professors!
