Book excerpt: In Book Twelve of the Florentine Codex, the encyclopedic work on ancient Mexico of Franciscan friar, Bernardino de Sahagún (1499–1590), he focuses on the history of the Spanish conquest. It includes the Nahuati text and Sahagún’s translation into Spanish. The original 1579 manuscript was subsequently revised by Sahagun in 1585 and although the original has been lost, in 1970, John Glass found another copy of the Spanish translation in the Boston Public Library. This was made available to Howard Cline for a project to create an edition of all available versions of Book Twelve. The project was continued and completed by Susan Cline, resulting in the present book. It includes facsimile editions of the Boston manuscript, and notes and opinions by the Mexican scholar Carlos María de Bustamante taken from an 1840 publication. It also includes a transcription of the Boston manuscript and an English translation of the same made by Howard Cline. A fuller history of this work is provided in the introduction by Susan Cline, explaining the differences and possible explanation for the changes between the 1585 revision and the original manuscript.

Book excerpt: The Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire was perhaps one of the greatest turning points in North American history. This book relates the full story of how the Spanish adventurer Hernando Cortés and his small group overthrew the Aztec Empire and laid the foundation for the present-day nation of Mexico. It tells of how Cortés found his way to the New World, and, once there, drew together an alliance of a few hundred Spaniards and around 7,000 local Indian allies-all of those who had suffered at the hands of the Aztecs for countless years and who leaped at the chance to exact revenge upon their neighbors. After an initially peaceful parley into the Aztec capital-in search of gold and other riches-violence erupted and the Spaniards were nearly wiped out and forced to retreat. Outside the city, Cortés assembled a new army, consisting of 2,000 Spaniards and around 200,000 Indian allies, and started a general assault on the Aztec capital which saw Spanish boats built in situ and assembled on Lake Tezcuco-the waterway surrounding the magnificent island city. The fierce three-month-long siege ended in utter defeat for the Aztecs, and the city was nearly razed and rebuilt as the present-day metropolis of Mexico City. This exciting, dramatic, and horrendously bloody story reveals all the horror of the time, and Ober's book remains one of the most readable narratives of this earth-shaking military campaign ever written.

Book excerpt: Spanish explorer Hernando Corts is a very controversial figure. To some people, he was heroic. Even though he was greatly outnumbered, he was able to defeat the Aztec Emperor Montezuma and conquer the Aztec empire because of his personal courage and leadership abilities. The Aztec empire was centered in modern-day Mexico. Its religion was based on human sacrifice. Corts replaced it with Christianity.To others, including many Mexicans, he was a villain because he destroyed the Aztecs way of life. They believed he was a cruel man. He was also a symbol of Spanish domination. When Mexico became independent from Spain in 1821, its people tried to remove their memories of him.Either way, one thing is certain. Hernando Corts was one of the most influential figures in the history of the New World.
