In 1542, after years of witnessing Indian suffering and slavery, Bartolome de Las Casas wrote this indictment against European exploitation and mistreatment of the native peoples of the New World. The document was dedicated to Prince Philip of Spain and appeared in published form in 1552. It carries all the urgency of a moment in history when it still seemed possible to reverse the tide.

評分A short and easy-ish read. The short account contains Las Casas's witness and testimony on the destruction of the native american during the first half of the 16th century. Each story is written in a somewhat similar fashion. Las Casas wrote this book to demand protection for indies only because he thought indices would convert to Christianity.
