Center for Southwest Studies is pleased to present Vicente de
Zaldívar’s account of his 1598 journey to the plains in Spanish
as well as English, and to present that Spanish text in a form
that reflects the original intentions of the writer. Jerry
Craddock’s careful comparisons of different renditions of this
journey meet the highest standard of critical textual analysis.
Scholars will value the fidelity of the Spanish language
account; general readers will be charmed by the story, either in
Spanish prose, or in Gaspar Pérez de Vallagrá’s poetic
rendering, or in John H. R. Polt’s graceful translations.
