"Third volume of The Civil Wars of Peru, which is Pt. 4 of the Chronicle of Peru, by a keen observer of 16th-century Andean life and customs. Narrates consequences of the New Laws (1542), including the rebellion led by Gonzalo Pizarro against the first viceroy, Blasco Núñez Vela. Reports on actions of Governor Cristóbal Vaca de Castro; the Real Audiencia; and groups of conquistadors from Cuzco, Arequipa, Charcas, Bogotá, and Quito"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
