"Los Conquistadores: El origen heróico de América" by José María Salaverría is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the Spanish conquests in the Americas, focusing on the heroic aspects and motivations of the conquistadors, such as their desire for glory, wealth, and adventure." The narrative delves into the landscapes of Extremadura and Andalusia, highlighting the regions that produced these daring figures and the historical context surrounding their expeditions. "The opening of "Los Conquistadores" sets the scene with an evocative description of the Spanish landscapes, particularly Extremadura." Salaverría reflects on the essence of the conquerors as they traveled through this barren yet rich land, filled with historical significance. The text introduces the idea that this region, seemingly disconnected from modernity, had birthed great spirits destined for the New World. The narrator expresses a deep connection to the past, envisioning the conquests while observing the present-day beauty of the terrain, and ultimately emphasizing the indomitable will and courage that characterized the men who ventured into the uncharted territories of America, which remains forever linked to their legacy.
