Excellent colonial history
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I agree with a past reviewer--Bakewell's is an excellent colonial history. As it enters the postcolonial, modern period, it becomes less so. It lacks detail and information because it covers the last two hundred years too quickly. For colonial history, I insist, it is really good and pithy. In that sense, it might be a helpful introductory reading for a student of the early Latin America.
