A very rare book. The only one I know of that focuses on the Spaniard's ultimate weapon: Dogs. Man-eating dogs. Mastiffs & Greyhounds. It was impossible for the Indians to sneak up on the Spanish or ambush them. More important than the horse. They hunted down slaves in the forests, assisted in hunting, and were vicious killers. The Spanish had human meat markets for dog food. Several notable Dogs were covered. This is a fascinating focus on a subject rarely mentioned - "Dogs of the Conquest"!
