Cymeme Howe, Visiting Assistant Professor of Cornell University writes, 6 he text moves well and builds over time, paying close attention to balancing both the Caribbean and Latin America as geographic regions, Spanish and non-Spanish speaking countries, and historical and contemporary issues in the field. I found the geographic breadth to be especially impressive."Jeffrey W.
