Although this is considered a history book, it could as easily be considered an art book. The book is
divided into two parts. The first part is written, the second is illustrated. The first part is essentially an
essay, as it goes through the conquest of Mexico in less than tirty pages. The text is very easy to
read and can be read by adolescents. The second part is the true gem of this book as the
illustrations are by Keith Henderson,who illustrated the two-volume edition of "The Conquest of
Mexico" by Prescott. Henderson was so impressed with Prescott's "The Conquest Of Mexico" that
he created these pen and ink drawings in 1922. The original prints have long been out of print but
have been revived here. The ilustrations are exceptional and not to be missed by any history buff or
lover of art that deals with the Aztecs and their conquest.
