Born in Blood & Fire: A Concise History of Latin America

Renting vs. Buying This Textbook

Renting is usually cheapest if you only need the book for one term: you return it with a free prepaid label when the term ends. Buying used can beat renting when the sell-back price is high, so compare the sell-back price with the rental price before you decide. An eTextbook arrives instantly but usually expires. Rentals and used copies rarely include working access codes.

Always match the ISBN on your syllabus (9781324069812) before you order; different editions have different ISBNs.

About This Book

Born in Blood and Fire pioneered an integrative approach to teaching Latin America history. Combining a regional perspective with a chronological framework, it enables students to more clearly see connections and comparisons that span several countries. In the Fifth Edition, John Chasteen expands the examination of Colombia's surging influence in the region and places greater emphasis on Latin America's connections to the Pacific world. The new Norton Illumine Ebook provides the best opportunity for students to grasp major developments and check their understanding as they read.
