The first new edition in 10 years of this important study of Latinos in US history, Harvest of Empire spans five centuries - from the first New World colonies to the first decade of the new millennium. Latinos are now the largest minority group in the United States, and their impact on American popular culture - from food to entertainment to literature - is greater than ever.

Lots of information and a wealth of knowledge
Revisado: 02-12-21
I recommend this book to anybody, especially anyone trying to gain knowledge / history on Latin America, and wanting to gain knowledge on imperialism of the United States. It’s eye opening, jaw dropping, and absolutely necessary information to know no matter who you are, your background, where you come from, your political preference, etc. The knowledge shared is priceless.

In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa. It’s a story that begins with his mother throwing him from a moving van to save him from a potentially fatal dispute with gangsters, then follows the budding comedian’s path to self-discovery through episodes both poignant and comical.

Beautiful memoir by a beautiful person
Revisado: 12-05-20
I enjoyed Trevors story of how he grew up in South Africa. It’s a travel in time to grasp what life as a child growing up South Africa while bing half white and half black in the later years of apartheid, learning about how his mother raised him and what a beautiful souls she has, how his dad was a part of his life or how he was a part of his fathers life rather, the troubling times with an abusive (lightly said) step father, and becoming a young man surrounded by a violet society. Sharing many similar experiences growing up, this book hit close to home for me. When so many people would turn towards a different way of life due to the circumstances of growing up in such ways, it’s a testament to mothers that show unconditional love and help their kids grow into beautiful people. Thanks for all you do and the endless inspiration you provide, Trevor. Means a lot to the world.

Great story and history of a disappearing culture
Revisado: 10-01-20
I’ve listened to this book twice in a row. Growing up around cowboy culture in Northern Nevada and Northern California along with a calling and love for Hawaii I wish the book never ended. It’s inspired me to write a short film that I hope one days comes to production to hep spread the word, help locals, and preserve Hawaiian ranching and cowboy culture.
