Prologue by Salvador Galvan Infante. Introduction by Ricardo Leon Alanis. Facsimile of the 1766 edition. Limited to 2000 copies.<br /><br />Vasco de Quiroga born between 1470-78 - died March 14 1565 was the first bishop of Michoacan Mexico and one of the judges oidores in the second Audiencia that governed New Spain from January 10 1531 to April 16 1535. Coming from a background as a lawyer and a judge he was appointed to be a judge in the second Audiencia after the first Audiencias failure. As an oidor he took a strong interest in restoring order to the Michoacan area which had been ravaged by rebellions and unrest. He employed a strategy of congregating indigenous populations into congregated Hospital-towns called Republicas de Indios organized after principles derived from Thomas More's Utopia. The purpose of this policy was to make the dispersed indigenous populations easier to control and instruct in Christian values and lifestyles. He established two such hospitals: Santa Fe de Mexico close to the town of Tacuba in the Valley of Mexico and Santa Fe de la Laguna close to Patzcuaro Michoacan. Because of his reputation as a protector of the Indians Vasco de Quiroga is venerated as a saint in some communities in Michoacan to this day.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />A near fine copy in like jacket.

In 1895 With Her Daughter Ida Dent Wright For Her Sole Companion She Went To Mexico. Secretary Of Foreign Affairs Ignacio Mariscal And President Porfirio Díaz Were Already Her Warm Admirers And It Was To Them She Went With Her Plans. Both These Executives Furnished Her With Letters To Every Governor In Mexico And The President Ordered Not Only A Military Escort Wherever Needed But That Special Trains And Steamboat Facilities Should Be Given Her Throughout The Country.

Besides Thousands Of Miles Of Railway And Steamboat Traveling Wright And Her Daughter Went Nearly 900 Miles 1400 Km In Mountain Regions On Mules Attended By Military Escort And Penetrating Regions Where None But Indigenous Women Had Been Seen Previously.
