Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. A very good HB of 238 pages with a very good & protected DJ.

With 500 fighting men, 100 sailors and 17 horses, Hernan Cortes attacked the Aztec empire in Mexico and secured for the Spanish crown what was to remain one of her most valuable possessions for over 300 years.
