Mexico: From Montezuma to NAFTA - Tapa dura

Going beyond a comprehensive description of critical events, this book is an introduction to the earliest Indian civilizations, the harsh rule of the Spanish and the country's tumultuous relationship with the United States. The book provides insights into the Mexico of yesterday, today and tomorrow. It explains the background to the current issues of NAFTA, immigration, Mexican Americans, the bloody 1994 Zapatista rebellion and drugs.
