What is Middle America: Its Lands and Peoples about?

This book is a welcome addition to the regional studies of Latin America. It is designed as a text for geography courses dealing with Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean area, but it should prove a valuable source of information and background material for specialists in many fields, as well as the general reader.Cultural geography of the region forms the basis for the author’s approach to the region. Special emphasis is given to the cultural diversity of Middle America and the roots of this diversity are traced through the pre-Conquest peoples, the colonial period, and post-independence. On the basis of physical environment, history and varying degrees of isolation, the authors divide Middle America into a number of generalized cultural areas which are grouped under two major subdivisions: the Euro-African (Caribbean) Rimland, and the Euro-Indian Mainland.Appropriate for a one semester course on Middle America (including Mexico, Carribean, and Central America) or Mesoamerica found in departments of Geography or Anthropology.
