Summary "Verdadera historia de los sucesos de la conquista de la Nueva-España" by Bernal Díaz del Castillo is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book chronicles the events and experiences of the Spanish conquest of Mexico, emphasizing the perspective of Díaz, a soldier who participated in the expedition led by Hernán Cortés. It provides a detailed narrative of the political and military maneuvers involved in the conquest, including the interactions between the Spanish forces and indigenous peoples. The opening portion sets the stage for the dramatic conflicts surrounding the conquest, highlighting the tensions between Cortés' forces and those loyal to Narváez, who is also seeking control over the newly acquired territories. Díaz recounts how Cortés, informed of Narváez's approach, carefully strategizes to maintain alliances and manage the situation with the indigenous ruler Montezuma, who is caught in the middle of the power struggle. This segment introduces key figures and the precarious circumstances, establishing an atmosphere of uncertainty and foreshadowing the confrontations to come as both sides prepare for inevitable conflict.
