Publisher Description:

Mothers Making Latin America utilizes a combination of gender scholarship and source material to dispel the belief that women were separated from--or unimportant to--central developments in Latin American history since independence.

  • Presents nuanced issues in gender historiography for Latin America in a readable narrative for undergraduate students
  • Offers brief, primary-source document excerpts at the end of each chapter that instructors can use to stimulate class discussion
  • Adheres to a focus on motherhood, which allows for a coherent narrative that touches upon important themes without falling into a "list of facts" textbook style
