Description
Based on *Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva España* by Bernal Díaz del Castillo.
Description
In "The fall of the Aztecs" this almost unbelievable story is told through two true eyewitness accounts: from the Aztec side by sixty graphic pictures drawn by artist-scribes who survived the conquest; from the Spanish side by a conquistador, Bernal Díaz, who fought as a foot soldier through the whole conquest and lived to write it all down in simple words.
