About This Item
Berkeley: University of California Press, 1919. First edition. Hardcover. g. Quarto. V, [1], 755, [1]pp. Uncut. Original blue cloth with gold lettering on front cover and spine. Printer's device on title page. The ever-increasing interest in Hispanic America offers ready acceptance to anything which aims at a wider dissemination of information regarding it. The study of the history of the territory lying to the south of the United States, and the sources of its history, particularily those located in the archives of Spain will be mined more and more extensively. No collection in Spain, indeed, no collection throughout the world, is so rich in materials concerning that region, as is the Archivo General de Indias, located in Seville. The present work is the best-known guide to particular material in the Archivo General. Moderate age wear on binding with corners bumped, thus slightly affecting pages throughout. Slight rubbing along edges. Minor age toning along paper margin. Binding in overall good- to good, interior in good+ condition.
