Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva España is a book written by Bernal Díaz del Castillo, a soldier who participated in the conquest of Mexico in the 16th century. The book narrates the process of the conquest of Mexico in a simple, agile and direct way. Díaz del Castillo relied on his own memories and written and oral sources to write his story.
Bernal Díaz del Castillo was a Spanish conquistador who participated as a soldier in the conquest of the Aztec Empire under Hernán Cortés and late in his life wrote an account of the events. As an experienced soldier of fortune, he had already participated in expeditions to Tierra Firme, Cuba, and to Yucatán before joining Cortés.
