[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I read it many years ago in High school! I even read Prescott’s version. GREAT HISTORY!
Found a copy of Bernal Dias’ book not long ago and reread it. I considered it such a important book I donated it to the local library.
They tossed it, along with other real history books that I donated, in the Salvation Army bin. I will NEVER give them another book on anything.

Gotta keep fighting. The library principle now is to continually replace old books with new books. It is almost Orwellian on a slow train.

I thought a function of library was to keep a record of what had been.
