Can anyone recommend one, or more, that are relatively sound in their analysis? I've been rooting around a little bit and haven't found anything that stands out as worth the cover price.

Alternatively, would anyone more knowledgeable and with a superior work ethic to myself care to write one? ;-)

A member of the Mises institute asked the same thing, here is a link with a couple sources;

Regrettably, the books I present are in Spanish, so unless you already know so, you can either learn the language or fetch a charitable Spanish speaker to narrate and translate the books for you. ;)

And admittedly, it is mostly focused on the late 20th Century, the big one that doomed Argentina's fate outright.

Thanks for the link... my Spanish is extremely limited, but maybe it's time to expand upon it.

It's not a book, but this interview might be useful...
