With startling speed, Spanish conquistadors invaded hundreds of Native American        kingdoms, took over the mighty empires of the Aztecs and Incas, and initiated an        unprecedented redistribution of the world's resources and balance of power. They        changed the course of history, but the myth they established was even stranger than        their real achievements. This Very Short Introduction deploys the latest scholarship        to shatter and replace the traditional narrative. Chapters explore New World        civilizations prior to the invasions, the genesis of conquistador culture on both        sides of the Atlantic, the roles black Africans and Native Americans played, and the        consequences of the invasions. The book reveals who the conquistadors were and what        made their adventures possible.
