About This Book

Un conquistador ofrece una memoria en primera persona de las campañas militares y la presencia española en la Nueva España, combinando relatos de combates, descripciones de poblaciones indígenas y detalles cotidianos de la compañía conquistadora. Relata asimismo las rivalidades y procesos jurídicos entre los españoles, las quejas y acusaciones dirigidas contra Cortés por enviados como Pánfilo de Narváez y Cristóbal de Tapia, y las audiencias ante la corte real. El texto alterna narración de hechos, justificantes de las decisiones tomadas y observaciones sobre la administración, la distribución del botín y las dificultades de gobernanza durante y después de la conquista.
