A thematic approach to detailing Latin America. 
For courses in Latin-American history. Written by two of the leading scholars in the field, Latin America and Its People presents a fresh interpretative survey of Latin-American history from pre-Columbian times to the present. It examines the many institutions that Latin-Americans have built and rebuilt - families, governments, churches, political parties, labor unions, schools and armies - through the everyday lives of the diverse people who forged these institutions and later altered them to meet changing circumstances.

"A valuable addition to the historical literature on late colonial Mexico and the very modified impact of the Bourbon reforms. Solidly based on research in the well-preserved local archives, the author investigates how a large city on the northern frontier differed from other cities in New Spain. Particularly rich in materials on labor and ritual"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
