{"product_id":"cortes-the-conqueror","title":"Cortés the Conqueror","description":"Among the very best books ever written about the leader of the Spanish Conquistadors, \u003ci\u003eCort s the Conqueror\u003c\/i\u003e captures the complexity and power of Cort s and portrays the full depth of his character-a man of bravery, ambition, fierce intelligence, skill, and charm, who modeled himself on Alexander the Great, and who, against incredible odds, led the conquest of Mexico. The author defends Cort s against many of the charges that have been made against him, and situates him in the proper context of his time and place. Sedgwick also admirably conveys the adventure and daring of Cort s' comrades, young men \"whose spirit was impatient of the tedious conventions of an old established social order, who ... desired a new land and new opportunities.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLong out of print, \u003ci\u003eCort s the Conqueror\u003c\/i\u003e is now available again in a completely new edition from Sunwise Books.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-7136975\"\u003eHenry Dwight Sedgwick\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/19\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.66d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798638508517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO023000\"\u003eAdventurers \u0026amp; Explorers\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42658008596717,"sku":null,"price":13.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_ea2853c0-b77b-42e4-bb6d-cec359967103.jpg?v=1649318912","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/cortes-the-conqueror","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
