Description   David M. Szewczyk (ed); Catherine A. Barnes (ed). This guide is intended to stimulate researchers to come & use the Latin American historical manuscripts in The Rosenbach Library in Phila. The Cortes & Cortes-related manuscripts are the most important collection regarding the Marquis outside of Mexico & Spain. But Cortes is only a small part of this collection. The manuscripts are overwhelmingly devoted to the common people of the colonial period, people who made no major or famous contributions to history. Valuable biographical data on some of them may be found in the Rosenbach manuscripts. The information, of interest mainly to social historians, ranges from physical descriptions, genealogies & inheritances to occupations, marriages & political & religious beliefs & practices. Illustrations. (Philadelphia: Rosenbach Museum & Library, 1980)
