The Cambridge History of Latin America is the first authoritative large-scale history of the whole of Latin America - Mexico and Central America, the Spanish-speaking Caribbean (and Haiti), Spanish South America and Brazil - from the first contacts between the native American Indians and Europeans in the late fifteenth and early sixtenth centuries to the present day. A major work of collaborative international scholarship, The Cambride History of Latin America has been planned, co-ordinated and edited by a single editor, Dr Leslie Bethell, Reader in Hispanic American and Brazilian History at University College London. It will be published in eight volumes. Each volume or set of volumes examines a period in the economic, social, political, intellectual and cultural history of Latin America.

Industry Reviews

"A landmark event to be celebrated by all readers interested in any aspect of the history, culture and society of Latin America... The two volumes now in hand show a remarkable consistency of editorial craftmanship and cohesiveness, to say nothing of a very high level of scholarly achievement... A giant step forward." Canadian Journal of History "The Cambridge History of Latin America is a large-scale authoritative study of Latin America's unique historical experience. This is a major work of collaborative international scholarship and an event to be celebrated...After having perused volume II of the series, this reviewer can only look forward eagerly to the appearance of the remaining volumes." Solomon Lipp, Revista Canadiense de Estudios Hispanicos
