Description: "Between 1880-1914, the province of Mendoza underwent an impressive spate of modernization. As this fine study points out, this transformation expressed itself in political, social, economic, and intellectual terms. In focusing on the Mendocino elites, the author sees the Generation of 1880 as launching a cultural assault on all aspects of the colonial past. While this wrenched the province into the modern world, it left much undone"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
