"De Orbe Novo, Volume 1 (of 2)" by Pietro Martire d'Anghiera is a collection of narrative tracts written between 1493 and 1525. This groundbreaking historical work chronicles the early Spanish exploration and conquest of the New World, drawing from Columbus's Caribbean voyages, Cortés's Mexican expedition, and Balboa's discovery of the Pacific. Among the earliest histories of the Age of Discovery, these accounts provide invaluable firsthand perspectives on European encounters with Native Americans and the dramatic expansion of the known world.
