Summary |
"The Birth of Modern Mexico, 1780-1824 investigates the roots of the Mexican independence era from a variety of perspectives. The essays in this volume link the pre- 1810 late Bourbon period to the War of Independence (1810-1821), analyze many crucial aspects of the decade of conflict, and illustrate the continuities with the first years of the independent Mexican nation."--Jacket |
