About this listen

Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges' historically accurate, exciting, and edifying audio recordings.

The conquest of the Aztec Empire by Hernando Cortez and a mere handful of Spaniards is one of the greatest romances of history. A writer of fiction would scarcely have dared to invent so improbable a story, but it is true. Fortunately Cortez was able to ally himself with many peoples conquered by the Aztecs who were all too happy to assist in their downfall. Roger Hawkshaw, a shipwrecked Englishman, presenting himself as a long-lost Spaniard, assisted Cortez in his many adventures.

The Henty Historical Novel Collection, written by George Henty in the 1800s, covers many time periods in history throughout the world. In this collection you will learn history, geography, and vocabulary while also discovering hero characters for your children to emulate.

Awesome Book

I have all ready listed to this Two times. It is a really good book, I recommend it to any one who loves historical fiction. G A Henty dose a fantastic job combining the true Historical event of Cortez's conquest of Mexico with the fictional character named Roger.

misleading and goofy both

I wondered when and if this was actually going to cover Cortes. Not in the first half. It's easily in the lower 5% of anything I ever got
