Conflict And Accommodation In Colonial New Mexico by Jonathan Decoster, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Embracing an argument-based model for teaching history, the Debating American History series encourages students to participate in a contested, evidence-based discourse about the human past. Each book poses a question that historians debate - How democratic was the US constitution? Why didcivil war erupt in the United States in 1861? - and provides abundant primary sources so that students can make their own efforts at interpreting the evidence. They can then use that analysis to construct answers to the big question that frames the debate and argue in support of their position. Conflict and Accommodation in Colonial New Mexico poses this big question: How completely did the Spanish empire extend its control into the northern Rio Grande region in the 17th century? | Conflict And Accommodation In Colonial New Mexico by Jonathan Decoster, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
