Description and Table of Contents

Description

This work offers an insight into the origin and growth of Hispanic settlements in the USA. Divided into two sections, the first gives a state-by-state account of the Spanish exploration and colonization of America, and profiles of every major explorer, missionary and settler in the making of the modern United States, from Christopher Columbus to the present day. The second section comprises a series of appendices which give useful listings of all officials, media, organizations and institutions which are operational in today's Spanish-speaking community.
