Title: Outdated, Dry, and Disorganized
Product review: This book provides an overview of Latin American History with an emphasis on economic and political trends. There is absolutely no reason for anyone today to read this book as its style and focus are completely outdated. The author also yields to the temptation with Latin American history to cluster all countries into a chronological account. The result here is disorganization and an unfocused text. Most texts written more recently realize the importance of clear organization and outlined topics as key components of an educational text. Unless you would like to intentionally make the learning process difficult for yourself, do yourself a favor and find an author who actually knows how to hold a students interest and convey history in a more informative and educational way.
