He also traces the tumultuous careersf such figures as Rosas, Roca, the Perons and Carlos Menem.;Offering annsight into Argentina, this text explores the paradoxes of economic growthnd instability, of corruption and democracy, of aspiration, achievement andisillusionment that characterize this land of the conquistadores.
