Violence, ambition, and fate collide in the life of the man who toppled an empire. Hernando Cortes traces the arresting story of Hern n Cort s his audacious voyage from Spain to the Gulf of Mexico, the fateful alliances with Tlaxcala, the dramatic encounters with Montezuma, La Noche Triste, and the siege that brought down the Aztec Empire. This vivid Hernando Cortes biography navigates the moral ambiguity of conquest and the thunder of 16th-century exploration: triumph and tragedy, greed and curiosity, and the profound encounters between European explorers and the indigenous peoples of Mexico. Rooted in meticulous research and lively narrative, the book illuminates the tactics, personalities, and politics that defined the Spanish Conquistadors and the conquest of Mexico.
