The Oxford History of Mexico by Michael C Meyer
Despite the growing curiosity about Mexico due to increased trade and commerce, and increased tourism and immigration, there is a gap in the literature for an up-to-date, accessible history of Mexico for general readers. This comprehensive history explores the country from pre-colonial times.
"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 "Excellent selection of authors."--Roberto M. Salmon, University of Texas--Pan American "Excellent survey of Mexico's history with magnificent contributions by specialists."--Stefano Varese, University of California at Davis "A splendid work! The Oxford History of Mexico sets the standard for history textbooks, bar none."--Vicki Ruiz, author of From Out of the Shadows: Mexican Women in Twentieth-Century America and Professor of History and Chair of the Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies at Arizona State University
