The Body of the Conquistador
Food, Race and the Colonial Experience in Spanish America, 1492–1700
Could European bodies thrive in the Indies? Would Indians turn into Spaniards if they ate Spanish food? This fascinating history of food, colonisation and race shows that attitudes about food were fundamental to European colonialism and understandings of physical difference in the Age of Discovery.
