Trade paperback. Zustand: Good. The format is approximately 4.25 inches by 7.25 inches. [10], 230 pages. Footnotes. Map. Bibliographical Note. There are some yellow highlighted passages. This book is one in a series of Borzoi Books on Latin America. The general editor of the series is Lewis Hanke from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. About the book: "From Reconquest to Empire: The Iberian Background to Latin American History" is a collection of essays edited by H. B. Johnson, Jr., exploring the Iberian Peninsula's influence on the colonization and development of Latin America. The book examines how the Reconquista, the centuries-long struggle to reclaim Iberia from Muslim rule, shaped the attitudes, institutions, and expansionist mindset that later characterized the Spanish and Portuguese conquests in the Americas. Latin American historians should welcome this recent addition to the Borzoi series. Harold B. Johnson has done an excellent job in dealing with what is probably the most difficult topic thus far assigned to a volume editor. Selecting items for inclusion in an anthology is never the easiest of tasks, but is even more difficult in the present case because it also involves some difficult decisions about the parts of the Iberian past relevant to the study of Latin American history. Johnson's ten selections are grouped under three broad headings, and his thirty-five page introductory essay fits each of them into a general consideration of the ingredients which led to creation of the two empires and shaped their historical development. The first group, "From Medieval to Modern Colonization," deals with the two traditions which shaped Iberian overseas expansion, that of medieval Mediterranean mercantile capitalism and the peninsular one of territorial conquest and lordship arising out of the Reconquista. It was the merging of these two traditions, with the Mediterranean one dominant initially, which established the "maritime bridge," to use Johnson's phrase, allowing for the transfer of Iberian institutions and values to this side of the Atlantic. Once the bridge was established, however, the Catholic Monarchs abandoned the Mediterranean or "trading-station" approach to empire and began to organize their Caribbean holdings along the lines of the traditional Iberian pattern of conquest and lordship. The Portuguese clung to the Mediterranean tradition until the threat of losing their American stations forced them to revert to the Iberian tradition of settlement. Johnson's discussion of the genesis of the two approaches to empire and the reasons for their merger, together with the views of Claudio Sánchez Albornoz and Charles Verlinden on the two traditions, provides a valuable contribution to the "European background" of Latin American history. The second section, "Elements of Conquest and Settlement," focuses on the institutional contributions of the Iberian kingdoms. It contains six selections, dealing with peninsular ranching, Madeira sugar plantations, slavery in Seville, the encomienda in Castile, as well as with the urban tradition and the contribution of the mendicant orders to the formation of Latin America. "The Ethos of Medieval Iberia," the third section, deals with the attitudes and values the Iberians carried across the Atlantic. Sketches of "national character" seldom are fully satisfying, but the selections used here, one by Américo Castro and the other by Jaime Cortesão, give us the views of two articulate and highly respected scholars.

Binder's front fly with a modern embossed foil sticker of a former owner. Otherwise, the book is clean, tight and bright.** With some notional reference to, perhaps, a writer such as Mark Twain, AUTHOR William Henry Harrison Murray (1840-1904) displays a folksy appeal and wry sense of humor in this fictional travelogue of a cross-country rail journey with a group of acquaintances meeting by chance from Boston and Washington DC. Traveling by rail northward through Vermont, they are destined for the coolly scenic miles of Canadian forest, mountains and glaciers, with San Francisco and Yosemite among their destinations. Apparently written while sitting home in Vermont, Murray was no stranger to travel. His many titles set in the northern woods of New York and southern Quebec earned the one-time minister and passionate outdoorsman the soubriquet "Adirondack Murray." [ See some of these titles under our Adirondack section.] The newly opened (1881) Canadian Pacific Railway linking Montreal to Vancouver seems to have expanded Murray's creative travel beyond the piney portages in lightweight foldable canoes upon which the bulk of his earlier work relies. President Grant's "World Tour" of 1879 through Europe to China, Japan and then via San Francisco through the Rockies and Vancouver must have been another popularizing influence in travel as a benevolent force for cultural connection. **Massachusetts-born ART EDITOR Josiah Byram Millet (1853-1938) is notable in relation to this book, as the then-recent 1888 purchaser of the Boston Photograveur Company, whose art reproduction technology he availed himself of in the creation of this work. As listed in his obituary, Millet, a Harvard graduate, was also interested in engineering, inventing a naval submarine bell signal device which became the standard in use. Additionally, he was involved with Wilbur Wright, becoming President of the Boston Aeronautical Society. President Grant appointed Millet to the so-called Red Cloud Indian Commission investigating the conduct of Indian Affairs in the 1870's. After 1908, he retired from these various endeavors and returned to publishing, drawing admiration for a series of beautifully produced illustrated books about Japanese culture written by Captain Francis Brinkley.
