Overview
Fully informed by the latest scholarship, John Charles Chasteen presents a compelling narrative of the Latin American experience, animated by stories of men and women from all walks of life and enriched by insightful analysis. This beautifully written concise history, spanning six centuries and twenty countries, offers students an integrated picture of Latin America: This is a story of despair and hope, conquest and colonization, racial mixing and class construction, revolution and the formation of republics, and the never-ending quest for sustained economic growth and political and social equality.
