Latin America, an area of great economic potential, has long been in need of an authoritative and concise introduction. This history has been written by a specialist who was closely connected with Latin America for over forty years. His text emphasizes how many races and classes have contributed to the civilization of this great land-mass: Indians, European conquistadores, priests, planters, African slaves, caudillos, liberal intellectuals and commercial pioneers.
