Description
Review:"Relates story of Jesuit ouster from Spain and Paraguay beginning with state demands for indigenous soldiers in 1734, moving through Jesuit resistance to the border treaties between Spain and Portugal and the growing anti- Jesuit movement in the court of Charles III. Author attempts to liven up the story by creating dramatic conversations, but work is based on research in primary and secondary sources"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58. https://www.loc.gov/hlas/
