Description: Bernal Diaz Del Castillo - The Discovery and Conquest of Mexico 1517-1521 translated, introduced, and annotated by A. P. Maudsley. Facsimile reprint of the 1928 Routledge edition. 596 page trade paperback in excellent condition with no interior markings or visible flaws. Bernal Díaz del Castillo (14951584) served under Cortés through the entire Mexican campaign, and his narrative is both an invaluable document and a spectacular epic. Del Castillo saw Cortés sink his own ships (to prevent desertion) as soon as they landed on Mexican soil, and watched Montezuma become a prisoner in his own palace. The immediacy of his voice as translated by renowned scholar A.P. Maudslay reaches across the centuries to invite readers to witness for themselves the horrors and wonders of the initial, apocalyptic clash between two great civilizations. $4.99 domestic US shipping. Payment must be received within 24 hours of sale.
