Leslie Bethell
The
Cambridge History of Latin America is the first authoritative large-scale
history of the whole for Latin America - Mexico and Central America, the
Spanish-speaking Caribbean (and Haiti), Spanish South America and Brazil - from
the first contacts between the native peoples of the Americas and Europeans in
the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries to the present day.
A major
work of collaborative international scholarship, the Cambridge 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.An important feature of The
Cambridge History of Latin America is the bibliographical essays which
accompany each chapter. The essays from Volumes I–IX, revised and updated, are
brought together in Volume X: Bibliography.
