A South American Frontier: The Tri-Border Region

(4) YA Arbitrary Borders: Political Boundaries in World History series. This book traces the history of the area where Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina meet, from colonial times to the present. In recent years its isolation, political instability, and lack of border security have drawn drug smugglers, counterfeiters, and terrorists to the region. Although highly informative, the book's dull, unattractive format with few illustrative elements fails to generate interest. Reading list, timeline. Bib., ind.
