"All academic and many public libraries have copies of Reed's 1964 classic in Latin American History, a masterfully narrated study of one of the longest and most successful of Indian rebellions. . . . Now, he has revised his book, and in over 100 additional pages incorporated the most important of the new research. . . . This updated edition of Reed's history will remain an essential and widely read overview of a fascinating chapter in New World history. All levels and collections."--Choice
