- Francisco Pizarro and the Conquest of Peru - audiobook
Frederick A. OBER (1849 - 1913)
Francisco Pizarro (1471 - 1541) was born into poverty, the illegitimate son of a Spanish soldier. After a brief career as a swineherd, he volunteered to join an expedition to the colony of Darien in Panama. He rose through the ranks to become right hand man of the governor. After hearing rumours of a rich country of gold to the south, he received permission from the king of Spain to lead an expedition to explore and attempt to conquer the Peruvian empire. This biography describes how, with an army of only 168 men, he was able to subjugate an entire nation. - Summary by Patrick Eaton
Genre(s): Early Modern, Exploration
Language: English (FULL Audiobook)
Well written, and well read. Thanks to Patrick. I prefer it when one, good reader read the whole book, instead of many changing voices.
Great book. Listened to the entire thing in 2 days. El Magro sounded like Cookie Monster though.
Fascinating, and well done. I feel as though I am right there.
I find it puzzling that all those thousands upon thousands of Inca warriors were so impotent against the few hundred Spaniards. Even when the Inca ruling class got it together and incited an uprising, they were still unable to defeat the invaders. Obviously this is what happened, but I fail to understand it every time I encounter this history.
La historia contada por los vencedores entra en revisión tomando en cuenta por un lado
El resultado de dos investigaciones de la universidad de College London y la de Leeds que en 2021 concluyeron que a la llegada de Colon existían más de 60 millones y un siglo después sólo quedaban 6 millones.
A LOS 130 sobrevivia.
Por otro que los descendientes de esos pueblos originarios aún sufren de la misma discriminación racial que llegó con occidente.
Because those Spanish were highly motivated, supremely confident, polished professional warriors with state of the art weapons, armor, tactics and strategy. But, most important was the perceptive, pragmatic, and decisive intellect of their highly ambitious commanders. “He who dares, wins”.
Guns is why!
You should repeat this to one's face
Some people are just smarter,Back then it was all about who had the military tech
Why no Movie of Pizarro, a monster yes....but what a MAN, impossibly brave MAN.
I agree. But Hollywood would never glorify a man like Pizzaro. Even as a "bad guy" his skill, ambition, luck, and overall story commands respect. And they can't have that.
@@mattjohnson7198 lol i agree
Ballziest Adventure in History
Aguirre the wrath of god
There is, it’s called “The Royal Hunt of the Sun”
Awesome, thank you so much! Ready for Peru now :)
Good book
A thrilling account and extremely well read
The end is much of latin american history since.

Pizarro was with Cortez and helped defeat the Aztecs, before he himself defeated the Incas
There are multiple references to “creditors” from what I can tell it was basically a crime for them to come back without repayment.
Debtors prison
Steel against feathers
Francisco Pizzaro Was Portuguese 🇵🇹
Ahora que el pueblo español revisa parte de su Historia y saca a Fco.Franco de la Basílica del Valle de los Caídos; me pregunto: ¿Cuando echarán a Pizarro de la Catedral de Lima, que para mas inri esta construida sobre un Templo Pre Incaico?
@blacksunSigrune "...Francisco de Chavez el pizarrista lugarteniente de Pizarro perteneciente a una familia de noble estirpe trujillana en la EXTINCIÓN de la etnia de los Conchucos mando asesinar a 600 niños menores de 9 años de edad a quienes hizo pronunciar su apellido en lugar del de Jesús al momento de ultimarlos...". (Su palacete familia es un atractivo turístico en Trujillo- Extremadura).
En USA se han derribado estatuas de Colon y no son comunistas
This helped me because I have him for a project
Áve María, grátia pléna, Dóminus técum.
Benedícta tū in muliéribus, et benedíctus frúctus véntris túi, Iésus.
Sáncta María, Máter Déi, óra pro nóbis peccatóribus, nunc et in hóra mórtis nóstrae.
Ámen.
Mater Dei, Ora pro nobis.🙏🏽
I prefer to pray to Jesus directly

Stop delivering a moral narrative to history.
You direct this at a long dead author.
thats what you just did. YOUR moral. see how that works?
We came we conquered it's what Europeans do and we do it so well from north America to Australia there not a ppl on earth we haven't defeated at one point in time
@Dani Al No you haven't.
True. Gotta admit it
But in North America we booted your arse out
You speak as though you were one of them. What have you conquered

Subjugate! Such a cleansing word for obliteration and slaughter.
I take it you are a gradute of de pubic scrool system ?
Spain never conquest Peru because it didnt exist at that time! It was the Inca empire!
Excuse me. Yes. But, the land is NOW called Peru, that is why it is called Peru, IT'S REFERRING TO THE LAND NOT THE COUNTRY.
There used to be an amazing narrative of this audiobook. This isnt it
Sounds like Donald Duck. What is it with the narrators they choose for Audio books?
This is libravox
So far this book seems euro centric
I wonder why, could it possibly be that the only records we have of the conquest are written, due to the fact that all those involved are long dead and the Inca didn’t have written language? It’s told the best way it possibly can be. History will always be centric to the language it is recorded in. You don’t see people complaining that the history of the Ming dynasty is “Sinocentric”.
@@isaachastings2550critical thinking is able to read between the lines and objectively write about history, this book is dogmatic.
@@brucepoole8552 It’s hardly “dogmatic” it does not shy away from the fact that the Conquistadors were pillagers and invaders, it actually tells the story quite impartially.
