This sweeping introduction unveils the fascinating, complex, and evolving history of Mexico—from its earliest settlement to the first decade of the 21st century.
The History of Mexico: Second Edition provides a timely introduction to the United States' complex and fascinating neighbor, tracing Mexico's history from the arrival of the first humans through the first decade of the 21st century. This second edition provides an important update on Mexico since the historic 2000 presidential election.
The History of Mexico is an authoritative examination of the diverse factors that have shaped the nation's experience. Coverage includes the Aztec Empire, the largest empire in MesoAmerica before the Spanish arrival; the period of Spanish dominance starting in the early 16th century; and Mexico's history as an independent nation since 1821. With this broad analysis in hand, students will be well prepared to discuss and evaluate the largest Spanish-speaking country in the world.
J. Burton Kirkwood is professor of history at the University of Evansville in Evansville, IN.
