Excerpt from An Account of the Conquest of Peru The work of Pedro Sancho is one of the most valuable accounts of the Spanish con quest of Peru that we possess. Nor is its value purely historical. The Relacion of Sancho gives much interesting ethnological information relative to the Inca dominion at the time of its demolition; Errors Pedro Sancho has in plenty; but the editor has striven to counteract them by footnotes.
