A compact history of Mexico / Daniel Cosio Villegas et al - 6th edition - Mexico : Colegio de Mexico , 2008 , c1973 - 159 p. ; 21 cm

Mexico's history is long and complex: early settlements thousands of years ago, refined indigenous civilizations a few centuries back, an overwhelming conquest by Spain and the merging of European and indian cultures over a long colonial period, finally independence and national formation, entry into the currents of world trade and capitalist development in the late 19th century, a major social revolution 85 years ago, and modernization and economic and social change to the present.
