Title

The Spanish Frontier in North America

Description

Weber (1940-2010) deals with a broad array of encounters, rivalries, and exploits that transformed the ecological, cultural, and political landscapes of the continent, including Mexico and the Southwest borderlands. Control of the frontier meant change for native people and Spanish settlers, alike, as Weber elegantly describes how “the old orders are transformed and the new orders arise out of [this] maelstrom of contention.”
--Roger Myers.
