Bartholomew De Las Casas: His Life, His Apostolate And His Writings (1909) is a book written by Francis Augustus MacNutt. It is a comprehensive biography of Bartholomew De Las Casas, a Spanish historian, social reformer, and Dominican friar who was born in 1484 and died in 1566. The book explores De Las Casas' life, from his early years in Spain to his time in the New World as a missionary and advocate for the rights of indigenous peoples. It also delves into his extensive writings, including his famous book A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies, and his role in the Spanish colonization of the Americas. The book provides a detailed and nuanced portrait of De Las Casas, highlighting both his successes and his failures, and placing him in the context of his time. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of colonialism, the role of religion in the conquest of the Americas, and the ongoing struggles for social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
