“Weintraub, the dean <strong>of</strong> Mexican studies, has once again delivered a book<br />
that diagnoses the disease that infects the relationship and prescribes medicine<br />
to heal the two patients. His purpose is to introduce more balance<br />
into the relationship, and one hopes that <strong>American</strong>s and Mexicans read<br />
this book and contribute to that goal.”<br />

PITT LATIN AMERICAN SERIES<br />
“An excellent addition to the scarce literature on the relationship between<br />
the media, politics and society in <strong>Latin</strong> America. It will also be very useful<br />
to anyone interested in the wider democratization process in Mexico and<br />
provides an interesting analytical model for how the media evolve in other<br />
areas <strong>of</strong> the world moving out <strong>of</strong> authoritarianism.”<br />

“Under layers <strong>of</strong> greed, lust, anger and envy, Sullivan discovers a treasure<br />
trove <strong>of</strong> Yucatan history. Xuxub was, to borrow a metaphor from science,<br />
a butterfly that fluttered its wings and sent a ripple <strong>of</strong> discord to far-flung<br />
places.”<br />
—The Wall Street Journal<br />
“This is an extraordinary book. A key text for students seeking to understand<br />
the intriguing and complex history <strong>of</strong> nineteenth-century Yucatan.”<br />
