. I'm fascinated by the stories that help make our historical figures more than two-dimensional ones about which we were made to memorize name/date/battle factoids. I'm glad I didn't arrive with the Puritans!
I chose Conquistador: Hernan Cortes, King Montezuma, and the Last Stand of the Aztecs
because I just finished the Gary Jennings novel Aztec Autumn
his sequal to Aztec
both about the Spanish conquest of the Americas, but told from the conquered point of view.
Tuned In: Uncover the Extraordinary Opportunities That Lead to Business Breakthroughs
just looked interesting.
I'll let y'all know.
