| The Spanish conquest of Mexico was the most remarkable military expedition in history, and in achieving it Hernan Cortes proved himself one of the greatest generals of all time. This book explores the background of the Aztec Empire, and of the Spanish presence in Mexico. It describes the life of the Aztecs in their glittering capital and of the Europeans who learned to adapt and survive in an alien and often dangerous world. The invasion was a war between civilisations, pitting the fatalism and obsessive ritual of the Aztecs againt soldiers fighting for riches, their lives and eventually their souls. | ||||||||||||
