Latin America: History and Culture : An Encyclopedia for Students

This encyclopedia is derived from Scribner's popular Encyclopedia of Latin American History and Culture, and is enriched with new art and coverage of current events and is completely rewritten for a student audience.

In A -- Z format, 749 articles are complemented by 60 color and more than 200 black-and-white pictures and maps.

Ideally suited to the curriculum, articles cover topics in history, social studies, literature, government, geography, humanities, current events and more.

Glossary terms are defined right on the page, and sidebars highlight interesting facts.
