Synopsis
Mexico is a three volume general history of Mexico, comprising (I) the PreConquest period to 1521, (II) the Colonial period from 1521 to 1821, and (III, forthcoming) the National period from 1821-present. These books give a comprehensive narrative and analysis of Mexican history, focusing especially on political, economic, and social organization. Balancing both a 'bottom-up'(popular) and a 'top-down' (elite) perspective, they seek, where possible, to locate Mexico within broader, comparative patterns of historical change and conflict.

Review
"The best Anglophone synoptic history of Mexico...Knight's volumes offer both unity of approach and authorial voice and a considerable level of detail...The dry humour and invocations of other histories, not to mention the sparkling writing, make the book a delight to read...a book that displays both high sophistication and accessibility." Eric Van Young, University of California at San Diego, The International History Review
"...an essential resource not only for historians of Mexico and Latin America but also of the European overseas expansion. Knight's work represents scholarly synthesis as its best: it offers both information and interpretation and is upheld by a massive body of documentation." Bulletin of the Society of Spanish & Portuguese History
"Mexico is a three-volume general history of Mexico that offers a comprehensive narrative and analysis of Mexican history, focusing especially on political, economic, and social organiztion." Cobblestone Publishing
"This work is that of a mature scholar who has a complete grasp of Mexican history and can explain it without getting bogged down in metalanguage or trivia.... an invaluable teaching tool. Highly recommended." Choice
"Knight presents a masterful distillation of the considerable sholarly literature that argues that the Bourbon era economy was limited in its expansion, underwent no transformation in character, and resulted in a rapid immiseration of the common people in the several decades preceding the outbreak of the independence movement."
Latin American Research Review, John E. Kicza
