The title of D. Neil Snarr and E. Leonard Brown's “An Analysis of Ph.D. Dissertations on Central America: 1960–1974” (LARR 12, no. 2 [1977]) suggests a comprehensive compilation and analysis of dissertation research on Central America between 1960 and 1974. While one might have hoped for coverage of a broader period, particularly since the 1950s produced several significant doctoral dissertations on Central America, such a title promises at least a handy bibliographic reference tool for Central Americanists. A close reading of the article unfortunatley makes it clear that it offers much less than that and in fact represents a distortion of the reality of doctoral research on Central America in the 1960s and early 1970s.
