What is The Spanish Frontier in North America : the Brief Edition about?
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__
