About This Item
xvi+331 pages with map, tables, graphs, bibliography and index. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6") bound in original publisher's brown cloth with black lettering to spine and cover. Translated by Richard Warren. First American edition.
In this revised version of his doctoral thesis, Tandeter examines the resurgence of silver production from the famous silver mines of Potosi (Bolivia) between the 1730s and the 1790s, shedding light not only on the changes which explain this upturn, but also on the traditional structures that survived through the entire colonial period. Translated from the Spanish-language edition of 1992, published simultaneously in Cusco (Peru) and in Buenos Aires.
Condition: Near fine.
