MEXICO UNDER SPAIN. 1521-1556. SOCIETY AND THE ORIGINS OF NATIONALITY

Chicago:University of Chicago Press. (1975). xvi+229pp.  Hardcover with dust jacket. A very good clean copy, inside and out, with a very good, slightly edge worn and sun-faded dust jacket.  *"In this broadly conceived overview, Peggy K. Liss provides the first comprehensive study of the origins of a separate Mexican identity within the Spanish empire in the first half of the sixteenth century. Her work is at once a fresh narrative history of the first generation after the Spanish conquest and an examination of the formative years of Mexican society."...dj
