Bernal Díaz del Castillo, himself a soldier under Cortes, presents a fascinatingly detailed description of the Spanish landing in Mexico in 1520 and their amazement at the city, the exploitation of the natives for gold and other treasures, the expulsion and flight of the Spaniards, their regrouping and eventual capture of the Aztec capital. Review: very beaityful - bery beautyful Review: A must for Aztec affectionados - If you are a serious student of Aztec history and culture Bernal Diaz epic story of New Spain is simply a must. Diaz, a simple sergeant and survivor of no less than three expeditions to Mexico is unlike most of his contemporaries literate. His book is a guide for academics and laymen interested in this topic and while I have read several books on the subject all in one way or another refer back to Diaz. Diaz was in his 70's around 1545 when he started penning his adventures. Sometimes he is a little naïve, sometimes he blows his own horn a little too loudly, and sometimes he forgets or misplaces names of places and peoples but in the end there is little to fault especially when you consider Diaz was deaf and loosing his eyesight at the time of writing. Even today his is a voice that blows a fresh breeze through the dark and dank corridors of time. I found The Conquest, an easy read and one difficult to put down. For history buffs focusing on the life and times of the Aztecs I cannot recommend this book enough. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #270,649 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #136 in Expeditions & Discoveries (Books) #350 in Colonialism & Imperialism History #897 in Travel Writing (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 551 Reviews | ## Images ![The Conquest of New Spain - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ulJ7FfLeL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ very beaityful *by A***R on 3 April 2018* bery beautyful ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must for Aztec affectionados *by D***R on 22 April 2015* If you are a serious student of Aztec history and culture Bernal Diaz epic story of New Spain is simply a must.

It's written in dimple soldiers language, easy to read. I envy these people a little, they got to see an actual New World. The way Spaniards behaved there is bad by today's standards, but they were children of their time and circumstances ## Frequently Bought Together - The Conquest of New Spain (Classics S) - A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies - Chronicle of the Narvaez Expedition (Penguin Classics) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/82081097-the-conquest-of-new-spain](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/82081097-the-conquest-of-new-spain) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-14*
