book Review
The product was great, I needed it for my Hispanics in a Global Society class. The artwork was great and the author really conveys the history and struggles of the Hispanic people.

Disappointed
Disappointed that their was not enough postage placed on the package, so then I had to rush on my lunch break to the post office(because they would not release it to my door.) and pay more money to get them to release the book to me.
