This book is not yet featured on Listopia. It's the classic War of the Worlds in Spanish. I'm trying to learn more Spanish. This has helped me increase my vocabulary and I remember the English version so my Spanish reading comprehension is developing too.

Wells utiliza una prosa bien detallada de como los marcianos nos invaden. Muy buena historia, no deja de sorprenderte el autor con esta lectura llena de diferentes emociones con respecto a lo desconocido para el ser humano. I am sure it was fantastic reading it when it came out. But now it is outdated, except for Wells lovers, literatura students, etc.

The king allowed this, with the caveat that he should delay doing so until the war was over. Although local resistance to the first creation of the viceroyalty was relatively limited, in the s, the threat, followed by the reality, of war allowed for the consolidation of viceregal rule. The attacks on the settlements themselves, rather than simply upon vessels and trade routes as had been the case during the previous wars of the century, allowed the crown simultaneously to portray reform as necessary to military success and opposition as akin to treason.

War also meant that despite his desire to return to Spain Eslava remained viceroy for ten years; like the prolonged tenures of Antonio de Mendoza in New Spain and the Infante Don Enrique in Catalonia, this must have helped to institutionalize the new viceroyalty.

The consolidation of the system of registros , instead of yearly fleets, did not only deliver a major blow to the Consulado of Cadiz but constituted the most significant transformation in Spanish American trade.

This list included those strategic provinces along the coastlines which had been served by military officers since the s—such as Cartagena, Panama, Portobello, Santa Marta, Maracaibo or Cumana—but added a number of internal provinces that had until then continued to be sold to the higher bidder: At the same time, the creation of the viceroyalty seems to have increased royal authority within the region, reducing conflict and increasing the collection of revenue.

It was partly the result of measures undertaken by Eslava and his successors to reduce tax evasion and to simplify the collection of existing taxes. It is less clear whether contraband abated with the creation of the viceroyalty.
