In 1519, Spanish conquistador Hern?n Cort's led a daring expedition to the heart of the Aztec Empire, in what is now central and southern Mexico. Within two years, this highly advanced civilization had fallen to the might of Cort?s? Spanish conquerors, resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands of Aztecs. This engaging title, presented in a lively graphic-novel style, explores two cultures in conflict-and the personality of a man driven by both insatiable greed and service to his country. |
