5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating book, highly recommended, October 7, 2007

David G. Robboy (Portland, OR United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Martyr: Luis de Carvajal, A Secret Jew in Sixteenth-Century Mexico (Jewish Latin America) (Paperback)
The archives of the inquisition have been preserved in Mexico, including detailed testimony recounting actual conversations. The book reads like a novel but it's history. Cohen must have been truly obsessed in order to do the research and write such a book. It's a compelling read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Luis Carvajal- The Younger, July 25, 2008
This review is from: The Martyr: Luis de Carvajal, A Secret Jew in Sixteenth-Century Mexico (Jewish Latin America) (Paperback)
The book is very interesting and gives a historical jewish perspective in New Spain during the late 1500's. I became interested in the book because my ancestor Juan Ramirez probably emigrated with Luis Carvajal (Conquistador) in 1580.
