By Right of Conquest is a historical novel written by Arthur Hornblow. The story is set in the 16th century and follows the journey of a young Spanish nobleman named Don Pedro de Valdez. Don Pedro is sent to the New World to claim land for Spain and to convert the indigenous people to Christianity. However, he soon realizes that the conquest is not as simple as he thought it would be. Don Pedro faces many challenges, including battles with the native tribes, conflicts with other Spanish conquistadors, and struggles with his own conscience as he witnesses the brutal treatment of the native population. Along the way, he falls in love with a beautiful native woman named Anacaona, who becomes a symbol of the clash between the Spanish and the indigenous cultures. By Right of Conquest is a gripping tale of adventure, romance, and the clash of civilizations, told with vivid detail and historical accuracy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the New World and the complex legacy of colonialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
