from Houghton Mifflin
Price: $16.50

Customer Review:
Wild horses have become a political football in Congress, with battles between those who want to protect them and those who are all too happy to eradicate them.

2.Conquistador: Hernan Cortes, King Montezuma, and the Last Stand of the AztecsConquistador: Hernan Cortes, King Montezuma, and the Last Stand of the Aztecs
from Bantam
Price: $18.15

Customer Review:
I was a huge fan of Levy's first biography of David Crockett, and was eager to read Conquistador. Once again Levy was able to paint an amazing portrait of these historical figures, while illuminating historical events in an entertaining manner. The final siege on Tenochtitlan makes an amazing climax... more info

3.The Last Days of the IncasThe Last Days of the Incas
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $19.80

Customer Review:
As a fan of John Hemming's The Conquest of Incas I was dubious that Kim MacQuarrie's work could begin to approach the level of Hemming's classic. Notwithstanding, I opened The Last Days of the Incas hoping I might glean an interesting insight or two. MacQuarrie's work quickly sent me shooting the... more info

4.Conquest: Cortes, Montezuma, and the Fall of Old MexicoConquest: Cortes, Montezuma, and the Fall of Old Mexico
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $14.28

Customer Review:
Thomas' "Conquest" was, along with Bernal Diaz del Castillo's first hand account, my primary research source for my novels on the Conquest of Mexico, SKULL RACK and HUMMINGBIRD GOD. It has been some time since I picked up this book but as I look through it I see that I have underlined virtually... more info

from Grove Press
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
I absolutely adored this book. It's like a halfway-boutique history that doesn't claim to be one, and as such it can get away with the halfway part. Grant explores the dirty, the grimy, and the repulsive, as well as the beutiful and the mundane. You'll fall in love with this book because Grant's... more info

6.Mexican Americans, American Mexicans: From Conquistadors to Chicanos (American Century Series)Mexican Americans, American Mexicans: From Conquistadors to Chicanos (American Century Series)
from Hill and Wang
Price: $15.30

Customer Review:
While taking an Anthropology class covering Mexican Americans we were asked to purchase this book along with another text book. I found Mexican Americans/American Mexicans to be a good book, with lots of useful and interesting information without being dry (like most text books).

7.Conquistador: A Novel of Alternate HistoryConquistador: A Novel of Alternate History
from Roc
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
This is a very good book with one feature that I consider a flaw, but some people may enjoy a great deal. The idea is that in 1946 an army captain accidentally discovers a parallel dimension where Europeans didn't discover the New World. As a result the alternate version of California is still... more info

from University of Oklahoma Press

Customer Review:
Marc Simmons can always be relied upon for giving acurate information in a compelling package. If you do not know the story of New Mexico's quasi feudal founding by Spanish Conqustidors in armor both the good and bad then you must buy this book quickly and correct your educational deficiency.

from Harpercollins College Div

Customer Review:
Although it has been years since I have read this book, I found it significant enough to have the author personally sign it. I located professor Padden, who is retired, alive and well. I spoke to him about writing this book and he indicated that the reason his book is so significant, is that most of... more info
