    FLAGS FAR


    Title: Far Flags
    Author: Fernando Martinez Lainez & Carlos Canales
    Editorial: Editorial Edaf
    ---------------------


    The West Was Won (How the West Was Won) is one of the Western where the magnificent John Ford reflected the Anglo-Saxon colonization of North America in the nineteenth century. However, what many do not know
    It is that three centuries (300 years) before a handful of brave Spaniards had already been there. From Florida to Alaska, in an almost forgotten deed, Hispanic banners waved over a vast territory that had to be
    defended with very few resources and without outside support.





    Fernando Martinez says:
    During the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth names like Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca, the first European to describe the Iguazu Falls and explored the course of Paraguay River centuries; Juan de Onate, the colonizer's territory
    now we are known as the states of New Mexico and Texas; Pedro de Alvarado, regarded as the conqueror of much of Central America; or Vicente Zaldivar, who found a more direct route to Paso del Norte
    from Santa Barbara; They echoed loudly in the lands that now make up the United States. The Spanish were the first Europeans who "fought with the tribes that have then been in the movies: the Apaches
    Comanche, Cheyenne, the Sioux ... who were the people who populated the prairies, "said Martinez Lainez.


    Spain, unable to claim their own history
    The exploits of these men are one of the least known episodes in the history of our nation, although with few resources and accompanied by the Company of the Cross will be enough to write
    Chapter three hundred years of the presence of Spain in North America.


    "Forgetting the Spanish action in the US it is determined by two factors. First, the Spanish oblivion itself and then in the US, ultimately the Anglo footprint belittles much Spanish culture.
    The term "Latin" is minusvalorador, of an inferior culture was invented.

  • Not much of a historian but I gotta admit those early explores really had a flare for style ! wonder what those tribes thought when they saw that coming.


    Don't worry boys keep smokin da pipe.....just a munch of cross dressers, and if we wait for the french, the wine and woman will be perfect.:outtahere:


    Just kidding Ramon.:D

  • Perhaps these tribes were more prepared for what we believe with the visits of Santa Agreda Religious the lady blue their Bilocations visiting the tribes. Have declared a day of the year holiday is San Antonio Texas. Thanks Ramon.


    Maybe the way he was ready for decision of God, using this religious indigenous tribes already familiar, as have their ancestors, without any target before had been physically in America, inexplicable things


    It helps to know some history of our roots that have much in common not only to have enemies in a small country, that in their territories the sun was setting, you tllevan more Indian blood and Spanish to English (only spoken language ).
