First-person account by Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca about his expedition to Florida in 1527 and his subsequent journey across North America. This book narrates the difficulties faced by the expedition, including shipwrecks, diseases, hunger, and conflicts with Native Americans. Despite the adversities, Cabeza de Vaca and his companions managed to survive and return to Spain, leaving a valuable testimony of the time of the conquest and exploration of the New World.
Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca was a Spanish explorer of the New World, and one of four survivors of the 1527 Narváez expedition. During eight years of traveling across what is today the Southwestern United States, he became a trader, evangelist, and faith healer to various Native American tribes before reconnecting with Spanish civilization in Mexico in 1536.
