Written by one of the world’s foremost historians of human migration, Peoples and Empires is the story of the great European empires—the Roman, the Spanish, the French, the British—and their colonies, and the back-and-forth between “us” and “them,” culture and nature, civilization and barbarism, the center and the periphery. It’s the history of how conquerors justified conquest, and how colonists and the colonized changed each other beyond all recognition.

During the last half of the 15th century a series of remarkable events occurred which would change the course of modern history. It was at this epic crossroad that the middle ages came to an end and a new Europe began its triumph. Until that time every modern sea captain believed that the world was flat. Once this illusion was shattered by a few adventurous sailors a whole "new world" lay waiting for them to explore. In classical and medieval times it was common knowledge that there were islands, or even a continent, in the western ocean. Many ancient cultures had recorded on their maps knowledge of such lands.This book describes what was found by these early explorers to the Americas and documents, not only many pre-Columbian discoveries, but also provides a detailed overview of the Spanish arrival in the New World. For example, considerable space is devoted to the history of Norse explorations, whose settlement began in the year 875 with the establishment of a colony in Greenland. Later expeditions brought the Vikings to North America at the close of the first millennium This book also describes how Columbus "rediscovered" America and the considerable trials and tribulations he encountered while doing so. The extinct civilizations of Mesoamerica; primarily the Aztecs, Maya and Toltecs, are discussed at length, including some of their northern-most settlements, inhabited by the "mound builders" whose monuments are found throughout North America.Of course, the arrival of the Spaniards changed the course of history for the native peoples of the Americas. A length chapter on the famous Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortes details his interaction with the Aztec leader Montezuma. The extraordinary, albeit extinct civilization of the Incas conclude the book. There is no doubt that the monuments found in Peru are some of the most impressive in all of the Americas. Most authorities agree that long before the Inca's rise to power there was a mighty empire which these cyclopean ruins must be attributed to. This book, originally published over one hundred years ago, provides a good overall perspective on the early exploration and later conquest of the Americas and will make a good addition to any library on ancient history.
