Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from With Cortes the Conqueror The conquest of Mexico in the sixteenth century is one of the greatest true fairytales of the world. A handful of men, lured by rumors they had heard of a land where gold was as plentiful as rocks in their Spain, set forth to discover and conquer it, with small conception of the greatness of their undertaking. They found a country abounding in marvels, riches and dangers. By means of audacity, courage and gunpowder they made themselves masters of its monarch and of its people, gave a new realm to the King of Spain, a wider sheepfold to Christendom, and started the vast flood of western gold that for generations continued to pour into Europe´s hungry coffers. In all American history there is no story so colorful as the story of the Conquistadores and the contest between their valor and the desperate defence of the Aztecs. There is no need to turn to European annals in search of romance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
