About this Item

First Edition, 1931, New York: The Macmillan Company. Original cloth boards with mild edge wear; slight dings to spine and light surface marks. Text clean, binding tight. No major flaws beyond general shelf wear consistent with age. An important early 20th-century work by economist and social theorist Stuart Chase, exploring Mexico?s transformation in the decades following the Mexican Revolution. Chase contrasts the ?two Americas? ? the traditional agrarian and indigenous culture on one side, and the rising modern, industrial society on the other. A blend of travel narrative, cultural study, and political economy, the book became influential for its perspective on Mexico?s role as a bridge between old and new worlds.
