New Acquisition on the Coronado Expedition: The Coronado Expedition From the Distance of 460 Years



The Coronado Expedition From the Distance of 460 Years, by Richard Flint and Shirley Cushing Flint consists of a collection of essays following the Coronado expedition based on known and previously unstudied documentation. The authors attempt to create a full picture of the Coronado expedition by assembling select puzzle pieces. This is a straight forward book that runs through the course of events of the expedition. This is a great book for anyone researching the Coronado expedition or Spanish arrival in North America. While full of factual detail, very little is embellished upon to create a sense of emersion into the story, so it is not recommended for the casual reader.
