A HISTORY OF MEXICO by Henry Bamford Parkes

A HISTORY OF MEXICO

By

Pub Date: Sept. 20th, 1938
Publisher: Houghton, Mifflin

Comprehensive picture of the country from earliest known history to oil seizures. Colorful, dramatic, this seems more careful in weaving Mexican events into world picture, and so makes clearer growth of current feelings and actions. A modern interpretation of the country's history, a thoughtful study of the early period, the Spanish conquest, the economic penetration of foreign interests, Diaz' rise and reign and fall, the place of each revolution in the whole picture, modern trends.
