Trade Review

A wonderful window into life in Mexico at the end of the colonial era. As a primary source, it is especially relevant to my Latin American history course. Lizardi provides insight into issues of ethnicity/race, gender, class, and radicalism through this novel.--David Carey, Jr., University of Southern Maine
