Reviews

"For those familiar with and fond of William Beezley's work, Mexico in World History will not disappoint. It contains the interesting anecdotes, cultural richness, and popular focus characteristic of Beezley's previous works presented in the same clear, approachable style...Mexico in World History is an excellent contribution to Mexican history, a shining example of the historiographical evolution of world history, and a useful reference for
instructors."--Teaching History
"Beezley does an effective job reaching his goals, introducing readers to many of the important events, people, and themes of Mexican history in a well-constructed, fast-paced narrative. Recommended."--CHOICE
