The Books

The Latin American Spanish Series is designed to take you from your very first encounter with the language to genuine, culturally rich fluency — through books that are passionate, honest, and endlessly alive. Each volume builds on the one before it. Each one can also be read independently. Together they form the most comprehensive and the most culturally insightful introduction to Latin American Spanish ever written for the general reader.

Voices of the Americas is the first volume — a passionate, wide-eyed introduction to Latin American Spanish as it actually exists, in all its regional variety, in all its historical depth, in all its human complexity and beauty.

Dive In is the second volume — a warm, practical, culturally intelligent guide to the language as it is actually used, for the complete beginner who is ready to open their mouth and try.

Speak the Street is the third volume — for the learner who is ready to move from functional competence to genuine street-level fluency.

More volumes are in development. The series will eventually cover every dimension of Latin American Spanish from first encounter to genuine cultural mastery.
