![]() From this perspective, the book provides a collection of historical voices and dramatic stories to pay attention to in order to understand what events occurred in 1500-1700. These characters describe what they felt and experienced when conquering the territories in Latin America or when being conquered or enslaved by the Spaniards and other European warriors (Galeano, 2014). It is possible to focus on the ideas and voices of not only Columbus and sailors, as well as the authorities and priests, but also on the views of the Indians, conquered people, and Creoles. Thus, the variety of protagonists presented in the book is distinctive, and each story is told from the perspective of this or that character and their vision. The characters described by Galeano are numerous, and they include Christopher Columbus, Bartholomew Columbus, Miquele de Cuneo, Alonso Hernandez, sailors, Indians, monarchs, conquistadors, and priests among others. ![]()
