| Summary | "Mexico, Aztec, Spanish and Republican, Vol. 1 of 2" by Brantz Mayer is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This comprehensive work examines the history, geography, and social conditions of Mexico, spanning from the era of Aztec civilization through Spanish conquest to the Mexican Republic in the 19th century. The narrative intricately details the conquest led by Hernando Cortéz and delves into the complexities of Aztec life and the impact of European colonization." "The opening of this historical tome sets the stage for Cortéz's conquest of Mexico. It begins with the background of the Spanish expeditions leading to the encounter with the Aztecs, particularly focusing on early explorers like Gonzalez de Cordova and Juan de Grijalva. As Cortéz prepares his expedition, the text introduces his character and ambitions while also hinting at tensions with Velasquez, his former patron. The narrative captures the political backdrop in which these historical events unfold, hinting at the rich and complex Aztec civilization that Cortéz would soon confront, setting the stage for conflicts that would have far-reaching consequences on the continent."
