The publications of the Hakluyt Society (founded in 1846) made
available early accounts of exploration. The first series, which
ran from 1847 to 1899, consists of 100 books containing published
or previously unpublished works by authors from Christopher
Columbus to Sir Francis Drake, and covering voyages to the New
World, to China and Japan, to Russia and to Africa and India. Pedro
de Cierza de Le n (c.1520 1554) was a Spanish solider who
participated in many expeditions throughout South America. Between
1548 and 1553 he travelled across Peru, interviewing local
officials and Inca prisoners and collecting information about the
landscape and indigenous people. Volumes 33 (Travels of Pedro de
Cierza de Le n) and 68 of the Hakluyt series were the first English
translation of his work; this, the second volume, appeared in 1883
and contains a detailed description of Inca society and the Spanish
conquest of Peru.
