Description: "Called an homage to the city of El Tocuyo, which was established in 1545 and ceased to exist 400 years later, the work is more a comprehensive encyclopedia of the city's 16th-century history than an analytical treatment. Yet, as an informational 'vision of the complex process of formation, growth, and permanence' of a city established by first-generation Venezuelan conquerors, this 2-volume work is fundamental"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
