Los navegantes de la Antigüedad creían que se convierte en inmortal quien sobrevive a tres naufragios. En el siglo XVI, Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca superó esa cifra mágica en sus exploraciones por las costas de Cuba y el Golfo de México. Sobrevivió a tantos huracanes y a tantas asechanzas humanas que mereció, si no alcanzar la inmortalidad, al menos perdurar en sus lectores. Pero no todos han reflejado imágenes fieles de su persona y de su obra. Argonauta, náufrago esforzado, trotamundos, Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca amaba tanto las tradiciones caballerescas que creó una nueva: el conquistador conquistado que, tras haber sufrido en sus propias carnes la esclavitud, se ganó la amistad de varias tribus indias. Su caso, aunque extremo, nada tiene de raro contra lo que pregonan quienes reducen la exploración y colonización del Nuevo Mundo a la galería de retratos de los conquistadores que consiguieron el poder y la gloria. Diez años tardó Ulises en volver de Troya a Ítaca. También Cabeza de Vaca pasó diez años de naufragios, esclavitud y hambrunas desde que se embarcó en Sanlúcar de Barrameda en junio de 1527 hasta que arribó a la Península por el puerto de Lisboa en agosto de 1537. Pero el Ulises del Nuevo Mundo invirtió el orden de sus desventuras. A los tres años de regresar a España de su odisea en la América boreal, partió hacia la austral, donde viviría su desastrosa ilíada como gobernador. Como no cabe esperar que Cabeza de Vaca vuelva a este mundo para desmentir a quienes han tergiversado sus escritos y desfigurado su persona, el autor de este libro recorrió junto con su mujer, la escritora Eloísa Gómez-Lucena, los lugares por donde malvivió en el sur de los actuales Estados Unidos y en el norte de México. Le guio el empeño de rescatar sus audacias, restaurar su imagen, precisar sus textos y fijar la ruta de sus infortunios. Esta es la sugestiva crónica de dicho viaje tras los pasos de un personaje irrepetible.

This edition of Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca's Relación offers readers Rolena Adorno and Patrick Charles Pautz's celebrated translation of Cabeza de Vaca's account of the 1527 Pánfilo de Narváez expedition to North America. The dramatic narrative tells the story of some of the first Europeans and the first-known African to encounter the North American wilderness and its Native inhabitants. It is a fascinating tale of survival against the highest odds, and it highlights Native Americans and their interactions with the newcomers in a manner seldom seen in writings of the period. In this English-language edition, reproduced from their award-winning three-volume set, Adorno and Pautz supplement the engrossing account with a general introduction that orients the reader to Cabeza de Vaca's world. They also provide explanatory notes, which resolve many of the narrative's most perplexing questions. This highly readable translation fires the imagination and illuminates the enduring appeal of Cabeza de Vaca's experience for a modern audience.

The story of Spanish explorer Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca brims with his adventures and misadventures throughout the North American Southwest. As of the sixteenth century, no European had journeyed over such a large extension of territory, from the Florida Peninsula to northern Mexico, and survived. This lively and informative volume goes on to examine his eight years of wandering in this unknown land, during which he learned natural medicine from the American natives and became a curandero, learned their languages, and served as a trader and peacemaker among different tribes. Vibrant illustrations complement and expand on this memorable, but often overlooked story.

This book combines a new English translation of La Relacion ("The Account") by Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca with the translator's analysis and commentary. La Relacion is Cabeza de Vaca's first-hand account of the Narvaez Expedition - Spain's failed attempt to colonize Florida in 1528. It tells the story of the first non-indigenous people to visit a large part of the present-day United States and Mexico and documents their first contacts with a number of pre-Columbian native American tribes. It describes the series of disasters and calamities that reduced Narvaez's army of 300 men down to four, including skirmishes with naked, bow-wielding natives, getting lost at sea, becoming shipwrecked, and being captured and forced to live as slaves of people who tortured them for their own amusement. It further describes how, after the four survivors were at their lowest, with nothing but their faith in God to keep them going, their fortunes turned, enabling them to emerge triumphantly from the wilderness, after eight years of being lost, surrounded by hundreds of adoring natives who believed them to be Children of the Sun. The heart of this book is David Carson's accurate, literal translation of Cabeza de Vaca's account. Not content with the typical approach of loosely paraphrasing the original text so as to get the basic idea across, Carson painstakingly chooses each English word so as to best replicate the author's words and voice. The result is the closest thing there is to reading La Relacion in Spanish. Next, Carson takes on the roles of editor, analyst, and commentator. Through his hundreds of annotations to the text, Carson tracks the Narvaez Expedition members' movements across Florida, the Gulf coast, Texas, and northern Mexico to an impressive level of detail and with insights that should settle several long-standing controversies about where the castaways went, and when they were there. He then goes even deeper, analyzing the castaways' motives in light of the culture of Spanish exploration in the Age of Discovery and pointing out the author's occasional contradictions and exaggerations. To bolster his analysis, Carson brings in relevant material from other 16th-century records, including Gonzalo de Oviedo's paraphrased version of the "Joint Report," which Cabeza de Vaca also co-authored. All of Carson's annotations are set off as footnotes, meaning one can make full use of them if desired, or simply skip them and read only the basic translation. Maps, a chronology, a glossary, a prologue, and an epilogue complete the book. If you have not read Cabeza de Vaca before, prepare for a fascinating story that will show you a side of American history you never knew about. If you consider yourself a well-read student of the Narvaez Expedition, this edition of "The Account" will surely become your ultimate reference book on the subject.
