Spanish Representations of the New World
Catalog
of a 1997-98 exhibition at the University of Pennsylvania's
Van Pelt-Dietrich Library, presenting books and manuscripts
from the Kislak Foundation collection, including original
printings of works by Columbus, Cortés, Las Casas and many
others. With a focus on colonial Mexico, the discovery and
colonization of Florida and colonial America, the exhibition
