This book provides a political and cultural history of Honduras,
covering the era of the Mayan and Lenca civilizations to today's
current political strife. Honduras has suffered both political
trauma and natural disasters throughout its history. In 1969,
Honduras' political tensions with El Salvador during a soccer
series preliminary to the World Cup led to the four-day-long
"Football War." In 1998, Hurricane Mitch caused billions of dollars
of damage to Honduras; ten years later, half of the country's
roadways were ruined, often beyond repair, by substantial flooding.
Most recently, many countries have frowned upon the Honduran
government's shift of power from the president to the head of
Congress. The History of Honduras provides a comprehensive history
of the small Latin American country, detailing Honduras's geography
and current political systems with emphasis on its politics and
cultural life. Recent coups and political controversy make Honduras
an important Central American nation for today's students to study
and understand. Contains a bibliographic essay that enables further
research Presents a chronology and maps
