A Brief History of Mexico, Revised Edition then brings readers up to date on developments in Mexico and helps them understand the deeper significance of recent events. While placing the latest developments in Mexican history and society in a broad historical context, this revised edition also incorporates recent research on past events, such as the settling of the Americas and the Tlateloclo Massacre of 1968"--Jacket.
