After centuries of negative portrayals, this book highlights Esteban's importance in America's early history. Books about the history of the American West have ignored Esteban or belittled his importance, often using his slave nickname, Estebanico. What little we know about Esteban comes from Alvar NuÌnÌez Cabeza de Vaca and other Spanish chroniclers, whose condescension toward the African slave has carried over into most history books. In this work Herrick dispels the myths and outright lies about Esteban. His biography emphasizes Esteban rather than the Spaniards whose exploits are often exaggerated and jingoistic in the sixteenth-century chronicles. He gives Esteban full credit for his courage and his skill as a linguist and cultural intermediary who was trusted and respected by Indians from many tribes across the continent."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 600 00 $a Estevan, $d -1539. 600 07 $a Estevan, $d -1539. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01817627 650 0 $a Explorers $z America $v Biography. 650 0 $a Explorers $z Spain $v Biography. 650 0 $a Blacks $z America $v Biography. 650 0 $a Slaves $z America $v Biography. 650 0 $a Slavery $z America $x History $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Cibola, Seven Cities of. 651 0 $a Southwestern States $x Spanish. $x Spanish. 651 0 $a Southern States $x Spanish. $x Spanish. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x Slavery. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY $z United States $x Southwest (AZ, NM, OK, TX) $x Southwest (AZ, NM, OK, TX) $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Blacks. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00833880 650 7 $a Cibola, Seven Cities of. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00861262 650 7 $a Discovery and exploration, Spanish. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352794 650 7 $a Explorers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00918556 650 7 $a Slavery. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01120426 650 7 $a Slaves. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01120522 651 7 $a America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01239786 651 7 $a Southern States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244550 651 7 $a Spain. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204303 651 7 $a United States $z Southwestern States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01244559 648 7 $a 1500-1599 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Herrick, Dennis F. $t Esteban. $d Albuquerque : University of New Mexico Press, 2018 $z 9780826359827 $w (DLC) 2018020657 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117025141.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20181106012811.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DABD416EE19111E89124B82197128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
