3.0 out of 5 stars BORING, January 26, 2001
By 
"foxxxy89" (Waltham, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This book is very informative, yet boring. My professor also believes that the author is opinionated, thereby leading to a biased account of Latin American history. However, after reading the material I felt that I had learned something and felt knowlegable about the subject. If you can get through the sometimes boring reading, you will be well-informed and prepared for history tests. :-)
