| 2. |  | The Earth and Its Peoples: A Global History Volume C: Since 1750 (Second Edition) from Houghton Mifflin Company Customer Review:  The book was a little dry, but in preparing me for my AP exam, I feel it did a decent job. My teacher substituted chapters from other books as well, so the information lacking from the earth and its people was compinsated. Although dry, the book opened my awareness to many components involved in... |

| 6. |  | Malintzin's Choices: An Indian Woman in the Conquest of Mexico (Dialogos (Albuquerque, N.M.).) from University of New Mexico Press Price: $24.25 Customer Review: My definition of a "keeper" of a non-fiction book is one where I can read the notes like a seperate book; and don't need to read the notes to keep track of what the author has said. This book makes no attempt to find the historical "Malinche." Its focus is on the circumstances and historical... |

| 12. |  | Plaza of Sacrifices: Gender, Power, and Terror in 1968 Mexico (Dialogos (Albuquerque, N.M.).) from University of New Mexico Press Price: $24.95 Customer Review: The author did an outstanding job presenting the student's side. However, she didn't offer enough insight into the other side. Perhaps the Mexican executive branch couldn't promise to investigate and prosecute those responsible for the initial police brutality. While writing a paper on "The... |

| 13. |  | The Life and Death of Carolina Maria de Jesus (Dialogos (Albuquerque, New Mexico).) from University of New Mexico Press Price: $21.95 Customer Review: This is a marvelous study not only of a poignant African-Brazilian woman persecuted for daring to state her beliefs, but one that reveals the different ways that American (Levine) and Brazilian (Meihy) scholars perceive the problems of race in society. A must read for anyone interested in Latin... |

| 22. | [no image] | The Earth and Its Peoples: A Global History : To 1500 from Houghton Mifflin College Div Customer Review: I am a sophomore in highschool taking an AP class with this book. It has a lot of information, which I guess is a good thing if you are reading this for your own personal gain rather than being tested on it. However, it is so dense that it is difficult to pick up key ideas. Every piece of... |
