This 1928 translation of his journals derives from the 1904 edition by the Mexican historian Genaro Garc a - the first edition based on the original manuscript. Written as a corrective to accounts that overemphasised Cort s' exploits, D az's epic focuses on the experiences of the common soldier. The most complete contemporary chronicle of the Mexican conquest, this important historical document is also a captivating adventure narrative that combines factual accuracy with many dramatic anecdotes. This volume focuses on the complex relationships that developed between the Spaniards and the Aztec emperor Montezuma on the army's arrival in Mexico. It contains chapters 82-136 and a key to the maps that appear at http: \/\/www.cambridge.org\/catalogue\/catalogue.asp?isbn=9781108017060.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernal D?az del Castillo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/26\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 438\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.97d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108017060\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":42786458566771,"sku":"9.78111E+12","price":88.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_ba39b90e-c2e7-4a81-840d-6e4fd4e8482f.jpg?v=1737465218","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-true-history-of-the-conquest-of-new-spain-9781108017060","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
