A review by emersonito
The Conquest of New Spain by Bernal Diaz del Castillo

4.0

This book is an excellent primary source of the conquest of Mexico. Reading this book felt like a novel, filled with outstanding storytelling about the brutal history of colonization. The bias of the conquistador who wrote this can be critiqued. However, it still pulls off the extraordinary task of retelling the experiences of people of many cultures hundreds of years ago.
