Description: "Penultimate work by Cieza about the second civil war between Don Diego de Almagro ('el mozo') and Licenciado Cristóbal de Castro (representing the Crown) for the governorship. Retells story that culminated in the bloody battle of Chupas (16-IX-1542), describing the assassination of Francisco Pizarro; the exploration of Nueva Granada, Rio de la Plata and Amazonas; the arrival of the Viceroy Núñez Vela; and the last moments of the rebellion of Manco Inca in Vilcabamba. Description of rebellion indicates subtle sympathy for Andean cause"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
