Excerpt from The Establishment of Spanish Rule in America: An Introduction to the History and Politics of Spanish America
This book has been written to present the main events connected with the establishment of Spanish rule in America, and to describe briefly the more important features of Spain"s colonial organization and policy. It is not designed to embrace the history of the Spanish colonies, or to furnish a rigid analysis of their constitutional law. It aims, by the use of certain historical facts, to make clear to ordinary readers and to students in high schools and colleges the origin and character of the political and economic institutions constructed for the government of Spanish America. It aims, moreover, to suggest that American history is not all told in the history of the United States, and, by making accessible in a concise form a general account of the Spanish colonies in their earlier decades, to offer an introduction to the neglected half of American history.
