  Each book in this series tells the story of a famous journey of exploration. Although it is written in the form of an exciting narrative, it also describes in detail the vessel used, the route taken, the problems and hazards encountered and the strange and wonderful finds. This book describes the expeditions of Hernando Cortes to Mexico in the 16th century, and his conquest of the Aztec people at the head of an army of conquistadores.
