Paraguay

Annotation. This selective, annotated bibliography, arranged by subject, aims to familiarize the reader with the best sources on a wide range of subjects relating to Paraguay. It focuses on material published since 1989, but classic texts and other key publications are also covered. Books published in English are emphasized, but many works in Spanish are also represented. Of the 742 entries, most are for published books, but a considerable number of periodical articles are also cited. The volume begins with an introductory essay, briefly outlining Paraguay's history from 1537 to the present.
