Digital Version of the Book "Juan Domínguez de Mendoza" Now Available

It's certainly been a busy summer. I had the chance to meet with Marc Simmons at his place in Cerrillos during teh first week of July. He and I signed about 30 copies of the book, "Juan Domínguez de Mendoza: Soldier and Frontieswman of the Spanish Southwest, 1627-1693" that were being sold by the Hispanic Genealogical Research Center of New Mexico. These copies represent the only ones signed by both Marc and me.

At the beginning of July there were only 170 copies of the book remaining of a run of 500 hardback copies.

If you haven’t purchased a copy of the book, you can read a generous sampling of the book on Google Books at:

Digital versions of the book are now also available. Barnes & Noble has a digital Nook Book version for $39 (40% savings) while Amazon has a digital Kindle version for $61.75.

The Nook Book sample provides the complete table of contents, one map, the list of all the Domínguez de Mendoza documents that were translated, the foreword and preface, and the first part of the introduction.

The Kindle sample offers the same and more. The full introduction is provided, including all end notes. The introduction is the historical summary of the all of the documents that were translated and provides the historical overview of the life of Juan Domínguez de Mendoza.

The paper that Marc Simmons and I wrote for the 2012 New Mexico History Conference on Juan Domínguez de Mendoza is being submitted to “The New Mexico Genealogist” for publication.
