About this title
First published in the early 1970s, Tree of Hate is Philip Powell's exploration of "the Black Legend"--the popular myth that colonial Spain and her military and religious agents were brutal and unrelenting in their conquest of the Americas.
"Powell seeks not merely to trace the origins of what he calls Hispanophobia but to analyze its impact on American education, textbooks, religion, and especially foreign policy. . . . The evidence easily demonstrates that English-speaking scholars and diplomats speak with a biased tongue. . . . Too many critics of Spain, to use Powell's central theme, have merely erected a 'Tree of Hate' out of ignorance or to justify their own prejudices and activities. . . . Powell's book deserves careful reading."--Journal of American History

Our experience with Priority Mail International shipments has been generally negative. Delivery for shipments that the USPS mail estimates in 6 to 8 business days, have experienced delivery delays to many countries running into two months. Even our most patient and understanding customers have been tremendously dissapointed. Unfortunately there is not much we can do. The approximate delivery dates listed on the USPS are hardly ever kept. Customers write annoyed but we have little to do with the delivery of a particular package once it is in the hands of the International Mail.
**CUSTOMS & IMPORT FEES:
Many countries are now requiring paymet of customs and import fees. Buyers are always responsible to pay those fees at the destination country. LEA Book Distributors is in no way responsible for such fees. We advise buyers to follow up promptly any such request in order to avoid delivery delays.
Las Tarifas de envío para Priority Mail International están calculadas para cualquier libro o libros que caben en un sobre especial de tarifa plana o cuyo peso no pasa de 4 libras. Si el tamaño o peso exceden el tamaño del sobre o las 4 libras, necesitaremos pedir autorización para tarifas más elevadas.
Hemos tenido problemas repetidos muy serios con el Correo Internacional en muchos países. Muchos envíos han tardado de tres semanas a dos meses.
