Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Old New Spain He who goes westward from the City of Mexico goes out by the gate of the Tlaxpana, and so along the causeway to Tacuba; the very path over which the Spaniards passed, leaving many killed and of the living nearly all being sore wounded, when they fled from the city that dismal night more than three hundred and fifty years ago. But this now is a very pleasant path; for on the right and on the left of it are fertile fields and trimly kept gardens, and shading it are many great green trees. And only a little way out upon it is the village of San Antonio, built of gray-brown adobe on the level land beside the causeway, and peopled by certain ragged, uncared-for, easy-going descendants of the race that now serves where once it ruled.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Spain in New America The Home Mission text book of necessity confines itself to a study of those groups which live under the Stars and Stripes, i. E., the Mexicans living in the United States, and the Spanish speaking peoples of Porto Rico and Cuba. The latter group, being under the protection of this country, has been accepted as Home Mission territory by most of the denominations and is, therefore, included here. Believing that the Christian Church must be mightily aroused as to its responsibility for the Spanish speak ing peoples of the continents, so that spiritual growth may keep pace with material development, the Council of Women for Home Missions, representing the Women's Home Mission Boards of sixteen denomina tions, prayerfully sends forth this little book, trusting that through its agency there may be awakened a more responsive interest in those peoples who represent old spain in new america.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spanish Conquest of New Mexico The last seventeen chapters were mainly written from the Spanish records in the secretary's office at Santa Fe, and which had never before been translated. These old manuscripts are complete, and their genuineness is un doubted. Their contents include an account of the great Indian rebellion of 1680, and the subsequent efi'orts Of the Spaniards to reconquer and hold the country. I had great difficulty in obtaining the journal of Onate who established the first permanent settlements in New Mexico and I am indebted to Major Simeon Hart, of El Paso, Texas, for the Copy I consulted, which he procured from the city of Mexico. It had been mutilated and only em braced a portion of his adventures, and as I was unable to obtain further information on the subject, the history of this important period is incomplete. This journal, entire, was formerly in the secretary's ofice at Santa Fe, but since the United States obtained possession of the country it was stolen, and no clue has been obtained of it. Of the journal of Cruzate I was only able to obtain a few pages, and these in ms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Queens of Old Spain IN a previous volume I have remarked upon the extremely small political significance of most of the Queen Consorts of England, although socially the country has become what it is mainly through feminine influence. In Spain the exact reverse has happened, and in no Christian country has the power of woman been less formative of the life and character of the nation, whilst, largely owing to personal and circum stantial accident, the share of ladies in deciding the political destinies of the country from the throne has been more conspicuous than in other European monarchies. The oriental traditions dominant in Spain for centuries tended to make wives the humble satellites rather than the equal companions of their husbands; and the inflated gallantry, before marriage at least, that sprang from the chivalrous obsession grafted upon mixed feudal and Islamic ideals, affected to exclude woman from the harder facts of existence, and from the practical problems that occupied the minds of men. But whilst these traditions limited the power of Spanish women generally, they were insufficient to counteract the extraordinary political influence of a series of remarkable feminine personalities who, mainly owing to feebleness and ineptitude of consorts, or to.
