A useful collection of important biographies that offers an introduction to a history of enormous complexity and, at the same time, provides a highly usable entree into the rapidly expanding historiography of women in Latin America.--Louis A. Perez, Jr., University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill This book is an excellent teaching tool due to its breadth of coverage of all Latin America, its informed description of the women's roles in each era, and its accessible narrative. I assigned the earlier version of this book in my survey classes for years, and inevitably, students cited it as their favorite book. In a field remarkably bereft of readable textbooks, Ten Notable Women of Colonial Latin America is a rare gem--a volume guaranteed to engage the attention and enthusiasm of undergraduates.--Jane M. Rausch, emerita, University of Massachusetts Amherst
