Rezensionen

Eastman and Sobrevilla Perea broaden our understanding of Latin American independence by exposing the multifaceted and multilayered nature of this transformative period. This nuanced history gives voice not only to familiar names but also to heretofore-underrepresented participants and explores the complex motivations that inspired both the defenders of empire and their opponents. Ambitious and creative in its approach, Independence and Nation-Building in Latin America will inform the debate around this subject for a new generation of students and scholars.
