Publisher Description: The Inca civilization of Peru was one of the greatest of the ancient civilizations of the Americas. In the 1530s the Spanish, led by the conquistador Pizarro, arrived in Peru. In their search for gold, they devastated the Inca culture, destroying its treasures, killing its leaders and bringing to an end the infrastructure of its empire. With Pizarro came one Mansio Serra de Leguizamon, who became the last of the Spanish conquistadors to die. This book tells his amazing story. He died at the age of seventy-eight, leaving a unique and famous apology for the conquest in his will. This book takes this remarkable document as its starting point, weaving a fascinating, sometimes disturbing tale of the vicious subjugation of the Inca civilization.
