It is a passionate, razor-sharp, lyrical history of North and South America, from the birth of the continent’s indigenous peoples through the end of the twentieth century. The three volumes form a haunting and dizzying whole that resurrects the lives of Indians, conquistadors, slaves, revolutionaries, poets, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The first book, \u003ci\u003eGenesis\u003c\/i\u003e, pays homage to the many origin stories of the tribes of the Americas, and paints a verdant portrait of life in the New World through the age of the conquistadors. The second book, \u003ci\u003eFaces and Masks\u003c\/i\u003e, spans the two centuries between the years 1700 and 1900, in which colonial powers plundered their newfound territories, ultimately giving way to a rising tide of dictators. And in the final installment, \u003ci\u003eCentury of the Wind\u003c\/i\u003e, Galeano brings his story into the twentieth century, in which a fractured continent enters the modern age as popular revolts blaze from North to South.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This celebrated series is a landmark of contemporary Latin American writing, and a brilliant document of culture. ","brand":"Open Road Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47144628355312,"sku":"9781480481435","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781480481435_p0.jpg?v=1763619937","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781480481435","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
