Juan Ponce de Leon is the most extensive biography to date of this important but misrepresented figure in the early colonial history of America. Written by one of America's foremost experts of 15th-and 16th- century exploration and discovery, this book dispels the myths about Ponce de Leon and credits him with discoveries for which he previously has not been credited. Ponce's life and legacy are examined in the context of Spain's ambitions in the New World during the 16th century.
