The Spanish Frontier in North America - The Brief Edition (Paperback, Brief)

This compact synthesis of David J. Weber's prize-winning history of colonial Spanish North America vividly tells the story of Spain's three-hundred-year tenure on the continent. From the first Spanish-Indian contact through Spain's gradual retreat, Weber offers a balanced assessment of the impact of each civilization upon the other. Praise for the previous edition: "I cannot imagine a single book giving a more comprehensive and balanced study of Spain's presence in North America."--Louis Kleber, "History Today" "For readers seeking to understand the larger meaning of the Spanish heritage in North America, Weber's vivid narrative is a must. This is social and cultural history at its best."--Howard R. Lamar, Yale University "A superb study."--"Choice" " A] deeply researched and splendidly conceived and written survey."--Alvin M. Josephy, Jr., "New York Times Book Review"
