An excerpt:

"Garcilaso de la Vega's La Florida del Inca is now getting the attention it deserves [...] 'La Florida del Inca,' edited by Raquel Chang-Rodríguez, is a collection of eleven essays that unravels the historical, intellectual, and publication background of Garcilaso's chronicle. The result is a vital resource for the general reader and the specialist [...] For those in the field of colonial studies, Beyond Books and Borders will prove to be indispensable; its interdisciplinary approaches provide solid background as well as stimulating interpretations."
