Toborga, Miguel de los Santos
05.11.2006I've never heard that name before, frankly. But this is my June project. I was contacted by some editors at Thomson who're publishing a new version of the multi-volume Encyclopedia of Latin American History and Culture. They want me to write that entry. Hopefully, they'll ask me to write entries on things that I'm more familiar w/ (say, late twentieth century Bolivian political history) rather than things I'm not familiar w/ (say, 19th century Church figures). Still, $30 is $30. And, as the cliché goes, it's an honor just to be nominated.
But, seriously, if anyone wants to direct me to excellent sources of information on this character, do share. Thankfully, the University of Chicago library (I'll be in Chicago all June) has excellent Latin American history resources.
