About this product

Product Information

In the 16th century the King of Spain issued his soldiers with a three pronged mission: to find gold, spread the word of Christianity and claim new territories for Spain. The conquistadors, as they became known, set off into the world to do just that, and nothing was to stand in their way. Their amazing journeys took them from Florida to Machu Picchu via the Amazon and Lake Titicaca. Their epic voyages revolutionised world geography and society was transformed by the bizarre foods they brought back - potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, pineapple, tobacco and chocolate, as well as exotic human freight. However, there is a much darker side to the story, for as the King of Spain sat in his court watching Mexican jugglers, his blood-stained emissaries massacred Aztec warriors, raping, branding and enslaving their women and murdering their kings in the name of religion. They spread European diseases such as smallpox, malaria and typhoid, decimating the local populations with tens of millions dying in their wake.

    Great seller. I contacted them about the contents of this journal and they confirmed very quickly that this edition is what I was searching for. The item was purchased, packed and posted the same day. Brilliant!

    The condition of the magazine was exactly how the seller described it. I think it was good value for money. It looked good when it arrived, as described. I requested that the seller delayed posting the magazine to me, and they did that and kept in touch with me about the post date etc.
