"For those who have never visited Chile or do not know a great deal about the country, this Reader is an impressive and accessible introduction to it. . . . For those who are more familiar with Chile, there is also a lot to reflect on and rethink in a new light. . . . The Chile Reader is a highly recommended, illuminating and thought-provoking read."  - Tanya Harmer (LSE Review of Books) “This book is recommended as a general, non-narrative introduction to Chilean History and for use in courses in Latin American History or, more specifically, the Southern Core.”  (Colonial Latin American Historical Review) “A major contribution of The Chile Reader to scholars is that many of these documents have never before been published in English. All these texts represent precious resources not just for scholars who are studying Chile and Latin America, but even for Chileans themselves who want to understand how their nation was forged.” - Fernando Pizarro (Journal of Latin American Geography) “The Chile Reader is an invaluable teaching tool.Graduate and undergraduate students will find inspiration for research projects among its pages. This remarkable volume is essential for scholars, students, travelers, and anyone who wants to learn about Chile’s complicated and fascinating history.” - Brandi Townsend (The Latin Americanist) “The Chile Reader is an accessible, perceptive, and engaging text. …  It offers ... insightful and fresh syntheses, at the same time that it provides rich documents and images that afford ample opportunity for informed reflection from readers. … [T]he volume is not only an excellent resource, but also an impressive intellectual achievement.” - Edward Murphy (Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology)
