Bernal Diaz
The Bernal Diaz chronicles – The true story of the conquest of Mexico
En Anglais – A wonderful, immersive tale about Cortes’s conquest of the Mexican Empire. Bernal Diaz, the narrator of the tale, was one of Cortes’s soldiers. As the story progressed, I became his confidant, travelling companion, and friend. Rarely have I found a story as exciting, bewildering, and interesting as this. I loved it. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in the history of Mexico, its people, or Hernan Cortes.
