Containing several excellent maps and derived from research of primary sources, the nine essays of this collection offer a detailed examination of a little acknowledged aspect of the Spanish conquest of Mesoamerica, namely, the role of native fighters. The essays include several specific cases; the accounts of Aztec conquistadors; a more general overview by Oudijk (Universidad Nacional Autónoma, Mexico City) and Matthew Restall (history, Pennsylvania State U.); and related subjects, including an essay by Robinson A. Herrera (history, Florida State U.) on Spanish sexual relations with native women in 16th-century Guatemala. Together, the studies make a valuable addition to Mesoamerican conquest history. A glossary is provided. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
