Book Description
Excerpt from Importance of Spanish to the American Citizen The United States has always been able to boast that some of its prominent men were actively interested in Spain. This has effectively prevented the public in general from losing entirely its interest in the Iberian Peninsula. We can point in our early days to Washington Irving, who, while United States Minister at Madrid, took occasion to steep himself in the romantic legends of early Spain and gave us not only his Conquest of Granada, but something artistically much more important, his beautiful Tales of the Alhambra. These legends, curiously enough, had never before gotten into print in any language. The Spaniards themselves appreciate Irving's interest in these legends and were the first to recognize the service he had done them in thus calling attention hereto.

Book Description
An American Language is a tour de force that revolutionizes our understanding of U.S. history. It reveals the origins of Spanish as a language binding residents of the Southwest to the politics and culture of an expanding nation in the 1840s. As the West increasingly integrated into the United States over the following century, struggles over power, identity, and citizenship transformed the place of the Spanish language in the nation. An American Language is a history that reimagines what it means to be an American—with profound implications for our own time.

Book Description
Excerpt from Within These Borders: Spanish-Speaking Peoples in the U. S. A The following pages provide only glimpses of a notable part of the population of the United States. No matter how expert and sensitive the reporter nor how large the book, one treatment cannot possibly do justice to Spanish Americans. There are a million of them in Texas, ia' California, in New Mexico, in both Arizona and Colorado, in New York, plus a scattered half million of illegal entrants. Add to these the Cubans in Tampa and visiting stu dents from every Latin American country. Such figures merely illus trate the weakness of arithmetic to bring a sense of reality to the description of a people.
