From the Inside Flap

"MacLachlan and Rodríguez have written a masterly narrative history of pre-colonial and colonial Mexico. . . . In synthesizing a massive amount of recent scholarship, the authors have done great service. . . . The book will please the demanding scholar [as well as] the reader who wants an introduction to the history of Spain's richest colony."—James W. Wilkie
