Background: In 1519, Hernando Cortés arrived in Mexico to investigate stories of a wealthy empire. With just a handful of men, Cortés achieved the impossible, crushing the Aztecs and their allies, and effectively annexing the whole territory for Spain. The American historian W. H. Prescott tells this extraordinary story in this classic account. What Cortés encountered was beyond his wildest dreams – an advanced civilisation with complex artistic, political and religious systems (involving extensive human sacrifice) and replete with gold. This was the Aztec empire, headed by the aloof emperor, Montezuma. |
