De Jauja al País de la Canela. De Chupas al Amazonas. Resulta casi imposible separar leyenda de historia en el descubrimiento, guerra y pacificación del Perú.
Cuando se cumplen 500 años del inicio de la aventura andina de Francisco de Pizarro, sin que se esperen grandes actos de conmemoración, aquellos hechos siguen rodeados de mitos y propaganda. El colapso del convulso mundo indígena, la hazaña de un puñado de españoles y las posteriores luchas entre conquistadores integran una de las mayores epopeyas de la humanidad que, sin embargo, la leyenda negra y el olvido han distorsionado.
El investigador Iván Vélez narra desde su esencia la conquista del Imperio inca y el nacimiento del virreinato del que tantos estados americanos son deudores. Lo hace valiéndose de las fuentes originales y de datos inéditos extraídos de los archivos para devolver la voz a los auténticos protagonistas: a hombres y mujeres que buscaron fama y fortuna, pero que, casi siempre, hallaron guerra y hambre.
Estos aventureros, crueles e implacables, leídos y soñadores, abrazaron un destino inconmensurable que les elevó a la inmortalidad en los libros de historia.
El nacimiento de un nuevo mundo solo fue posible tras la derrota del anterior. Porque nunca tan pocos vencieron a tantos.
Iván Vélez (Cuenca, 1972). Es arquitecto e investigador asociado de la Fundación Gustavo Bueno. Ha publicado los libros Sobre la Leyenda Negra, El mito de Cortés y Nuestro hombre en la CIA, entre otros. También ha participado en obras colectivas como Gustavo Bueno. 60 visiones sobre su obra y Podemos ¿Comunismo, populismo o socialfascismo? En la Esfera de los Libros ha publicado La conquista de México. Una nueva España, Torquemada. El gran inquisidor y Reconquista. La construcción de España.
