From the book jacket:
In preparation for this book, Roderick Cameron went to South America and followed the trails of the conquistadors and other early empire builders -- the missionaries, scientists, fortune hunters, and civil servants -- who were posted or attracted to Mexico, Central America and the west coast of South America. Mr. Cameron has blended his personal impressions with the recorded impressions of previous travelers. He has referred to journals of little-known men as well as to the writings of famous explorers.
