German description: Intrigen, Verrat, Mord und Totschlag, Sucht nach Gold und morderisches Ringen um politische Macht: Das sind die Themen, die den Eroberungszug der spanischen Konquista und den tragischen Niedergang des Inkareiches in Peru begleiten. Die Geschichte vom glanzvollen Aufstieg und tiefen Fall der Bruder Pizarro reizte einen spaten Zeitgenossen der geschilderten Ereignisse, Theodor de Bry (1528-1598), die dramatischsten Szenen dieser dunklen Epoche europaischer Entdeckungs- und Eroberungsgeschichte in kunstvollen Kupferstichen und schlichten lateinischen Tatsachenberichten festzuhalten. Der Text eignet sich wegen seines packenden Inhalts, der einfachen sprachlichen Gestaltung und der Aussagekraft der Illustrationen in besonderer Weise fur die Anfangs- und Ubergangslekture.
