📱 eBook en inglés A SIGNAL VICTORY

First published in 1960, A Signal Victory was David Stactons eighth novel, and the first in what he envisaged as an American Triptych. In this opening panel Stacton paints a vivid picture of the impact of two great civilisations upon each other.

Guerrero was a Spanish soldier, shipwrecked on the shores of Yucatan. Years later the Spaniards came as conquerors - but by this time Guerrero was a prince, had married a kings daughter, and would be a spearhead of resistance to the white-skinned invaders from the west. A Signal Victory is Guerreros story - that of a man who found where his true loyalties lay, and pursued them to their inevitable end.
A strange, outlandish, fearsomely intelligent novel: it has absorbed into its texture some of the hieratic society which it depicts with such brilliance.Telegraph
