Osvojenje Meksika

Osvojenje Meksika

William Prescott

The book explores in detail the Spanish conquest of Mexico in the 16th century, with a particular focus on Hernán Cortés and his expedition that led to the fall of the Aztec Empire.

The book begins with an account of the social, political and cultural circumstances in Mexico before the arrival of the Spanish. Prescott describes how Cortés, driven by ambition and greed, gathered an army and set out to conquer. The author details the battles, strategies, and key moments in the conflict, including interactions with native tribes and political intrigue.

Prescott also analyzes the motivations and characters of the main participants, as well as the influence of European culture on Mexico. Through rich descriptions and analyses, the author explores the themes of power, colonialism and cultural exchange.

The book is admired for its historiographical accuracy and narrative style, which gives readers a deep insight into one of the most important moments in American history.
