Historia de la Nueva Mexico, 1610: A Critical and Annotated Spanish/English Edition (Paso Por Aqui Series) (English and Spanish Edition)
"Pérez de Villagra's epic poem chronicles his journeys with the Oñate expedition as the legendary group traveled from El Paso to explore New Mexico, experiencing hunger, thirst and deprivations and gory conflicts as they struggled to reach Santa Fe. The language is rich, eloquent and often lovely, but, like the original expedition, this is not a journey for the fainthearted. The author pulls no punches about the violence and agonies of the expedition."
