THE HISTORY OF HISPANIC MEN AND WOMEN has been told in many different ways including books, movies, plays, poems, and magazines. In Hispanic Heritage and Participation on United States Stamps, readers will learn the history of Hispanic people and their culture as highlighted on United States postage stamps.

While a postage stamp is just a small piece of paper printed and issued by a postal service, people and subjects featured on them offer postal customers and stamp collectors a great deal of information, art and history, through the simple charm of a beautiful and small image. In this book, readers will learn history one stamp at a time, connect past and contemporary events, and learn about the people whose endeavors and accomplishments made them remarkable and memorable.
