Items related to The Course of Mexican History
Synopsis
The Course of Mexican History draws on both classic and current sources to provide a wide-ranging survey of Mexican history from the pre-Columbian period to the present. In addition to careful consideration of Mexico's political and economic dimensions, the book thoroughly covers social and cultural issues as well--for example, population trends, lifestyles, and the role of women. It also discusses such timely topics as Mexico's petroleum deposits, the ongoing problem of undocumented Mexican workers entering the United States, and Mexican-U.S. relations under the Reagan administration.
