Paperback. Condition: Good. In the seventeenth century, South Texas and Northeastern Mexico formed El Nuevo Reino de Le n, a frontier province of New Spain. In 1690, Juan Bautista Chapa penned a richly detailed history of Nuevo Le n for the years 1630 to 1690. Although his Historia de Nuevo Le n was not published until 1909, it has since been acclaimed as the key contemporary document for any historical study of Spanish colonial Texas. This book offers the only accurate and annotated English translation of Chapa's Historia. In addition to the translation, William C. Foster also summarizes the Discourses of Alonso de Le n (the elder), which cover the years 1580 to 1649. In the appendix, Foster includes a translation of Alonso (the younger) de Le n's previously unpublished revised diary of the 1690 expedition to East Texas and an alphabetical listing of over 80 Indian tribes identified in this book. Chapa was also an authority on the local Indians, and his Historia lists the names and locations of over 300 Indian tribes. This information, together with descriptions of the vegetation, wildlife, and climate in seventeenth-century Texas, make this book essential reading for ethnographers, anthropologists, and biogeographers, as well as students and scholars of Spanish borderlands history.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. This book investigates the political, social, and economic dynamics and structures that influence the leadership of Civil Society Organisations at the local, national, and global levels.Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) play an increasingly important role in the political, economic, and social dynamics that shape daily lives across the world. Encompassing a diverse range of organisations, objectives, and activities, the CSO sector is an expansive terrain characterised by dynamic relationships between leaders, agents of action, the communities, and the global challenges that drive their agenda, which span from poverty to climate emergency to injustice to inequalities.

Hardback. Condition: Good. Book Riot's Best New Book Releases A 2025 Latino Book Award Winner, Gold Medal for Best Novel -- Historical Fiction -- English "A vivid and unprecedented journey into the Spanish invasion of Aztec Mexico." --Luis Alberto Urrea, acclaimed author of The House of Broken Angels A "wild, unforgettable adventure" (Reyna Grande, author of A Dream Called Home) about the triumphs and sorrows of one of the most controversial and misunderstood women in Mexico's history and mythology, perfect for fans of Silvia Moreno-Garcia's Gods of Jade and Shadow and Zoraida Córdova's The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina. A real-life historical figure, the woman known as Malinalli, Malintzin, La Malinche, Doña Marina, and Malinalxochitl was the Nahua interpreter who helped Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés communicate with the native people of Mexico. When indigenous leaders observed her marching into their cities, they believed she was a goddess--blessed with the divine power to interpret the Spaniards' intentions for their land. Later, historians and pop culture would deem her a traitor--the "Indian" girl who helped sell Mexico's future to an invader. In this "lush tale about the power of language, the complexities of empire, and the bonds of sisterhood" (Rita Chang-Eppig, author of Deep as the Sky, Red as the Sea), Malinalli is all of those things and more, but at heart, she's a young girl, kidnapped into slavery by age twelve, and fighting to survive. Blessed with magical powers, and supported by a close-knit circle of priestesses, Mali vows to help defend her people's legacy. For the first time, Malinalli's "propulsive story of magic, love, and the struggle for power in a new world" (Luis Jaramillo, author of The Witches of El Paso) is told with the empathy, humanity, and awe she's always deserved.…
