The Hispanic Society of America presents the second volume of its photographic collection on Latin America, focusing on the industrial models developed between 1850 and 1930. Through approximately 180 images, the book shows the industrial advances in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico, in contrast to the old commercial model. Key sectors such as tobacco, coffee, and meat production, mining, and rail transportation are documented, reflecting the economic and social growth driven by these activities. As with the first volume, Visions of Latin America: Urban Views, this work offers a valuable visual perspective on regional development.
