Using a wide arrangement of visual tools, this atlas offers a detailed overview of the experiences and important events surrounding Americans of Hispanic descent. The atlas examines in great detail how Spanish, Native American, and African influences combined in different ways, through many historical twists and turns, to form the varied cultures of Hispanic America -- and how that history affects Hispanic Americans today. Photographs, line graphs, charts, chronologies, box features, and maps help explore the cultural, historical, political, and social history of Hispanic Americans. Coverage also profiles key events and issues in their homelands, especially those factors that influenced their movement to the United States. Atlas of American Diversity

Each country or racial group has at least one large colored map showing the 1980 geographic distribution and text outlining the group's historical background in the United States and present-day situation. The final third of the atlas is made of appendices of county-by-county ethnic census data.

Almanacs

 

The Hispanic-American Almanac: A Reference Work on Hispanics in the United States
Sonia G. Benson, Editor
Detroit: Thomson Gale, c2003
Uris Library Reference E184.S75 H557x 2003

Beginning with an overview of the history of Hispanics from the Spanish conquests in the New World to the modern emigrations to the United States, this source then offers a chronology and copies of major historic documents from both the Americas. Rarely addressed subjects such as women, Hispanic businesses, the arts, and science are covered in depth, as are more common topics such as the labor movement, employment, and religion. The legal and political history of Hispanics is particularly well researched. Covering modern immigration laws, police brutality, and Hispanics within the judicial system itself, this section provides information that is otherwise difficult to sift from similar Anglo sources. The main strength of this reference tool is its biographical information. From Library Journal.
