Overview

This compact synthesis of David J. Weber's prize-winning history of colonial Spanish North America vividly tells the story of Spain's three-hundred-year tenure on the continent. From the first Spanish-Indian contact through Spain's gradual retreat, Weber offers a balanced assessment of the impact of each civilization upon the other.

Praise for the previous edition:

"For readers seeking to understand the larger meaning of the Spanish heritage in North America, Weber's vivid narrative is a must. This is social and cultural history at its best."--Howard R. Lamar, Yale University

"A superb study."--Choice

" A] deeply researched and splendidly conceived and written survey."--Alvin M. Josephy, Jr., New York Times Book Review
