SUMMARY
Bartolom de Las Casas's critical account of the impact that the Spaniards had on the new continent has long been recognized as one of the major sources for the study on the interaction between whites and American Indians during the sixteenth century. The present translation of The Devastation of the Indies is based on the 1965 edition and appeared for the first time in 1974. The reprint is now accompanied by a penetrating introduction by Bill M. Donovan... All this makes the introduction to a provocative and stimulating essay, preparing the reader for the actual text by Las Casas.Bartolomé de Las Casas is the author of 'The Devastation of the Indies: A Brief Account', published 1992 under ISBN 9780801844300 and ISBN 0801844304.
