Maya-British Conflict at the Edge of the Yucatecan Caste War

Description: Maya-British Conflict at the Edge of the Yucatecan Caste War interrogates the 1862 alliance forged between the San Pedro Maya and the British during the Caste War of Yucatán (1847-1901).

Review Quotes: "Kray masterfully conducts a rich and detailed exploration of a part of the Caste War that has, until this point, inexplicably escaped thorough scholarly attention. The book's insights on Western Belize and the San Pedro Maya are especially significant because most of the extant literature on the Caste War and its implications for Belize have remained focused on the northern border region."
--Rajeshwari Dutt, Indian Institute of Technology Mandi

"A work of enormous value that focuses on the perspectives and experiences of the Maya people by giving priority to the scarce documents left by the Yucatec Mayas who inhabited the British dominions."
--Juan Castillo Cocom, Universidad Intercultural Maya de Quintana Roo
