Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Histories Of Brazil, Vol. 1
Dr. A. S. W. Rosenbach was the first to suggest to me the usefulness of a facsimile reprint and an English version of this rare book. I doubt very much if I should have undertaken the task, had it not been for his urging. At any rate, I commenced to translate it. Six months later Professor Marshall H. Saville proposed that I permit the Cortes Society to be the medium by which to make the work accessible, a proposal so gracious that it could not be rejected.
