Gendered Crossings: Women and Migration in the Spanish Empire
by Allyson M. Poska
informative
reflective
medium-paced
A fascinating look into the gender dynamics of the colonization of what is now Argentina. This history is readable, fascinating, and compelling, and it's use of a narrative within the first four or so chapters really pushes the reader forwards.
Content Warnings
There's a lot here, but content warnings regarding like, the inherently traumatic nature of colonialism and the intense power dynamics between men and women sexually are to be noted. But it's also history, so it's generally not graphic.
