First Edition
First printing. Folio, 29 x 20.5cm, pp [37],216,203,173,39,[30 - an index of "cosas notables"], with full-page plate showing the Nativity scene. History of the foundation of the Bethlemite order in Guatemala by Brother Peter of Saint Joseph Betancur, i.e. Santo Hermano Pedro (1626- 1667), together with a biography of the saint. Betancur, born in the Canary Islands, came to Guatemala as a young man, aspiring to become a priest. Unable to master the Latin, he withdrew from the Jesuit school, became a Franciscan tertiary, and founded a hospital in Antigua, Guatemala. This was followed by a school, a hospice for poor travellers -- priest and students esp. -- and finally the founding of a new order, la Orden de los Bethlemitas y de las Bethlemitas, recognized by the Holy See -- the first new religious order in the Americas. His hospital work was innovative, as it was specially intended for convalescents. He is credited with introducing the Nativity scene ("Belen") into Christmas festivities into the continent, and the posada processions, that quickly took root throughout Latin America, esp. Mexico and Peru. This work is divided into four parts, containing a life of Hermano Pedro, a life of Fray Rodrigo de la Cruz, the second superior general, a history of the order in Latin America, and a brief section on the lives of other important persons in the order.
