Kuvaus

Francisco Pizarro (1471 - 1541) rose from humble beginnings as the illegitimate son of a Spanish soldier to become one of historys most notorious conquistadors. Initially a swineherd, Pizarros thirst for adventure led him to join an expedition to the Darien colony in Panama, where he quickly climbed the ranks to become the governors right-hand man. Driven by tantalizing tales of a golden empire to the south, he secured royal approval from the King of Spain to embark on a daring journey to conquer the vast Incan territory. In this gripping biography, discover how Pizarro, commanding a mere 168 men, managed to defeat and subjugate an entire civilization, forever altering the course of history. - Summary by Patrick Eaton
