A new book revisits the fascinating but often overlooked history of the British presence across the continent.
This article is adapted from AQ’s special report on China and Latin America.
Shafik Meghji consulted with Andrew Graham-Yooll, an esteemed former editor of the English-language newspaper Buenos Aires Herald, before writing Small Earthquakes.
A continent which European writers have failed to explain and few Latin Americans have succeeded in interpreting.
Meghji gives insight into the region, building on Graham-Yooll's work, including the minor classic A State of Fear.
