Contents Description:

Soon after the making of the Spanish empire in the New World began with the island discoveries of Columbus, the great colonial effort moved to the mainland of Mesoamerica to put down roots. Its growth and flowering were prodigious, rapid, and full of both splendour and horror, whether in the branch that grew toward the southern American continent, or to the northern. This book traces the path of Spain in the northern continent. - from the preface
