Great essays about the Spanish-speaking Americas PROS: well-written, with few typos. Each chapter introduces cognates to increase vocabulary. Comprehension questions before and after each essay or poem. Contains great pictures of important artwork, people, and landmarks.

My Spanish conversation class used this text, and the essays on Latin society, ancient ruins, and past/present famous political leaders are very interesting and informative. It also contains important poems that focus on such topics as the adversities faced by the poor and minorities.
