from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
Price: $15.60

Customer Review:
"Hunting Eichmann" is a masterful piece of work by author Neal Bascomb. He sets the stage perfectly by giving his readers an introduction to Adolph Eichmann and his role in the war, especially as it relates to Eichmann's role as efficient bureaucrat (or, as others have termed it, 'desk murderer') in... more info

from Penguin Classics
Price: $8.64

Customer Review:
Chatwin captures the essence of Patagonia page after page, and I really enjoyed how he described the bleakness of the land but also how he found and described interesting people along the way. His adjectives were wonderful. He's right up there with best travel writers of all time, including some of... more info

3.The Little School: Tales of Disappearance and Survival in ArgentinaThe Little School: Tales of Disappearance and Survival in Argentina
from Cleis Press
Price: $9.17

Customer Review:
Argentina has often been a hotbed for political activism. Even those unfamiliar with foreign governments know of Juan Perón and his wife Eva, immortalized in Andrew Lloyd Webber's catchy musical, Evita. For many of us, the concept of a military coup is unfathomable -- such actions are... more info

4.Alive!: The Story of the Andes SurvivorsAlive!: The Story of the Andes Survivors
from Mandarin
Price: $93.56

Customer Review:
Alive is a book that speaks about human beings, trapped in the worst condition anyone can be caught in; freezing conditions, without adequate protection nor food, dead friends all around, 16 persons remaining alive from the 45 passengers, and no sign of a rescue nor an end to this ordeal. The only... more info

from PublicAffairs
Price: $8.64

Customer Review:
The book is great! It was recommended to me by my economics professor as an easy read and very informative about the pain of a country going through a crisis.

6.[no image]Old Patagonian Express
from Washington Square Press
Price: $8.00

Customer Review:
In the "new" introduction, the author talks about this opinion out there that travel books always end up being about the author him/herself. He goes on to imply that his book won't be like that. He also says he intended the book to teach us and illustrate to us the countries he visited. Well, he... more info

from PublicAffairs
Price: $4.95

Customer Review:
Winter has written a romantic and sympathetic love story with a twist: the love interests are a city and a dance. He successfully captures the strong feelings that many gringos have for the spirit and soul of Buenos Aires. If you're one of those who wish you had been born and reared in Buenos Aires,... more info

from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $66.90

Customer Review:
I could not believe this book was real. It was written so well and it was so engrossing that I could NOT put it down. I remember reading the chapters before our professor assigned them.
It remains one of my favorite history books of all time and I can't wait to read Professor Chasteen's newest... more info

9.The History of Argentina (Palgrave Essential Histories)The History of Argentina (Palgrave Essential Histories)
from Palgrave Macmillan
Price: $5.18

Customer Review:
I was very disappointed in Mr. Lewis' recap of Argentinian history. It read much like a high school history text: with all the key dates and important political figures but very little context and no depth to keep the reader engaged. Dry in tone, nothing but the facts and not much to keep the reader... more info
