It is difficult to imagine more tumult. New Spain was rapidly becoming Mexico, and the conflicts between the Spanish born in Spain and those born in America (the criollos) were coming into the white-hot stage; territories were contested and re-contested; and, of course, Napoleon had to have his hand in it. This collection of nine articles describes the roots of the Independence era in Mexico, starting with the late Bourbon period to the War of Independence and its aftermath. Editor Archer (history, U. of Calgary) and his contributors describe the contributions of popular culture to insurgency and nation-building, the Hidalgo revolt and its links to differences between the American- and Spanish-born, the development of secret insurgency, family life in a time of insurrection, Callieja's strategies, the surprising contributions of the mining enterprise, Mexican independence as a millennial experience, Iturbide and consensus, and the legislative v. the executive in early Mexico.
