Andrei Fedorovich Kofman's (1954–2024) book is the first complete translation into Russian of the "relations" (official reports) of Hernán Cortés to Emperor Charles V. These reports, compiled between 1519 and 1526, themselves became important sources on the history of Mexico and the Conquest. But the author, not content with merely translating Cortés's reports, supplemented them with numerous quotations from other chronicles and the memoirs of participants in the events, often presenting an alternative point of view, including from the collection of chronicles of the conquered Aztecs known as "The View of the Vanquished." The book is richly illustrated and contains an extensive reference list; this is Andrei Fedorovich Kofman's last book.
