Summary
A comprehensive analytical work on Hispanic surnames and an extensive bibliography of family histories. This is not a study of surnames or family history in Spain per se. Rather it is a review of the development of Spanish surnames in Latin America and the Hispanic United States, with references to the availability of surname studies in Spain, found in the appendices and in a few cases in the bibliography
