What is Great cruelties have been reported : the 1544 investigation of the Coronado Expedition about?

<p>the Testimony Taken In Mexico In 1544 Regarding Treatment Of Native Americans By The Coronado Expedition Is As Fresh And Relevant As Today's News. These Documents&#151;in Both Modern English And The Original Spanish&#151;raise Issues And Demonstrate Attitudes As Timeless As Revelations From My Lai Or Kosovo. No Other Documents Come Close To Providing The Wealth Of Information About The Indian Responses To The Coming Of The Europeans Or About The Europeans' Attitudes Toward The Native Peoples They Encountered. Under The Influence Of Powerful Advocates For Indian Rights, King Carlos I Had Ordered The Investigation. Despite The General Brutality Of The Sixteenth-century Conquest Of The Americas, There Was An Energetic Activism In A Group Of Contemporary Spaniards Who Led Europe In The First Modern National Debates On Human Rights. It Was Their Efforts That Led Conquistadores Like Francisco Vazquez De Coronado And Garcia Lopez De Cardenas To Be Called To Account.<p> In Addition To Transcribing And Translating The Testimony Of Various Witnesses, Flint Analyzes And Annotates It, Providing An Invaluable Resource For Researchers In Generations To Come.<br><p><b>about The Author:</b><br>
