Cuisine - Bolivian Recipes
The cuisine of Bolivia is suited to the high, cold climate in the altiplano: lots of peppers, aji, and food served
picante, spicy hot, although you can request medio picante or poco picante for medium or less hot. In the
altiplano, cuisine relies on carbohydrates and protein from potatoes and meats, plus trout, trucha, from Lake Titicaca. In the lowlands, freshwater fish, vegetables, fruits are more popular.

My Mother's Bolivian Kitchen: Recipes and Recollections
This book includes 150 unique recipes as well as a memoir of growing up in a culture where eating is taken
quite seriously. The recipes presented in this book are easy to make and, although some of the ingredients
are not readily available, the author provides substitutions to achieve similar results. Bolivian cuisine is quite
distinct from that of many Latin American countries, both in preparation and ingredients. It incorporates foods
developed by the Incas, such as quinoa and chuno (freeze-dried potato). Among the recipes included is a
Bolivian pastry called salernas; its warm golden crush, when broken open, releases a pungent smell of exotically spiced meat, vegetables and raisins.

A Concise History of Bolivia - Herbert S. Klein
In its first Spanish edition, Herbert Klein's A Concise History of Bolivia won immediate acceptance within
Bolivia as the new standard history of this important nation. Surveying Bolivia's economic, social, cultural, and
political evolution from the arrival of early man in the Andes to the present, this current version brings the
history of this society up to the present day, covering the fundamental changes which have occurred since
the National Revolution of 1952 and the return of democracy in 1982. These changes have included the
introduction of universal education and the rise of the mestizos and Indian populations to political power for
the first time in national history. Containing an updated bibliography, A Concise History of Bolivia remains an essential text for courses in Latin American history and politics.
