About This Book

The volume gathers two retrospective seventeenth-century documents: a legal and commercial survey tracing royal ordinances, Council of the Indies debates, and memorials arguing for the maintenance and expansion of trade between the Philippine archipelago and Nueva España up to 1640; and the opening sections of a comprehensive Dominican account of missionary activity in the islands, summarizing the foundation, organization, and religious work of the Dominican province with notes on local conditions. It includes translations, bibliographical data, and facsimile plates such as contemporary maps and title-pages to illustrate sources.
