Summary

Uncover the fascinating story behind Bolivia, one of South America’s few landlocked countries.

From the precolonial empires of the Tiwanaku and Inca, to the arrival of the Europeans and Bolivia’s journey to its current place in the world, this book examines the rich history and culture of this vibrant country and how the past has shaped it.

Covering their campaign for independence, the Chaco war, class struggles, and the abundant natural resources which let them form wealthy mining industries, this audiobook also takes a look at the current issues the country faces and the rampant cocaine industry which has plagued them.

Nevertheless, Bolivia has an incredible story which is a must-listen for anyone interested in South America and world history.

Terrible pronunciation and too short

This was way too short, and the Spanish words/places were pronounced so badly I found it really distracting. Bolivia is a fascinating country, but this was not a fascinating audiobook. At 35 minutes this was not even the length of a middle school history lesson, yet it covered a time span from Tiwanaku - Evo Morales.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
