Annotation: " The intellectual content of the book is arresting and guarantees that Wealth and Power in Provincial Mexico will enjoy a respected place in nineteenth-century historiography. . . . [It] should offer a critical orientation for future studies of western Mexico, and it will serve to remind scholars of the many cross-currents hidden within seemingly homogenous national doctrines such as Liberalism." -- Latin American Research Review
