This narrative history of Latin America surveys five centuries in less than five hundred pages. The first third of the book moves from the Americas before Columbus to the wars for independence in the early nineteenth century. The construction of new nations and peoples in the nineteenth century forms the middle third, and the final section analyzes economic development, rising political participation, and the search of identity over the last century. The collision of peoples and cultures--Native Americans, Europeans, Africans--that defines Latin America, and gives it both its unity and diversity, provides the central theme of this concise, synthetic history.

Eakin's latest book on the History of Latin America is extremely thorough, insightful, and most of all, very readable. It includes the latest in scholarship regarding the earliest settlers to the New World; includes geographical overviews, and the stories of many of the important Columbian-era figures. This work also fully covers Latin America right up to the end of the 20th Century. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in a very interesting survey of the Western Hemisphere.
