. . . a superior work of synthesis, which accommodates traditional concerns and newer approaches, . . . Jay Kinsbruner writes in a style which engages the attention of the reader, and scholars as well as students will profit from his book.

. . . an excellent summary. . . . Clear, concise, and fair, Kinsbruners book is an enormously intelligent analysis . . . a book of considerable wisdom. It is now the best one-volume treatment of Spanish American independence on the market, highly suitable for students and general readers and equally absorbing for the specialist.
