Jonathan D. Amith. The Möbius Strip: A Spatial History of Colonial Society in Guerrero, Mexico. Stanford, Calif.: Stanford University Press. 2005. Pp. xvii, 661. $75.00.

Jonathan D. Amith's book is one of the most important works on colonial Mexican history to be published in the last decade. It combines empirical depth with theoretical innovation on multiple fronts; the wealth of detail concerning colonial Guerrero alone establishes this as a standard reference for years to come. Amith's contribution extends well beyond archival immersion in an understudied region, however. Although pitched at a very advanced level that would present formidable obstacles to an undergraduate and general readership, the book will be required reading for any scholar interested in Guerrero, colonial social history, economic history and especially historical geography.
