Borba de Moraes, p. 740-41 (first edition). Sabin 71997, noting the Venice editions of 1778 and 1802 only). Originally published, in two volumes, in 1777 by Strahan and Cadell in London and Balfour in Edinburgh "to a very positive reception" (ODNB); first Venice edition published in 1778. "Its success," according to the ODNB, "was even more marked on the continent, where it was considered Robertson's masterpiece . . . With its dramatic sweep of narrative, combined with a provocative confrontation of two very different stages of civilization [Spanish and Native American] and a prose that was more flexible and evocative than that of his earlier books, the History of America is often regarded as Robertson's most interesting, original, and even Romantic work. However, it also shows the Eurocentric limits of his stadial thinking, because it presents an unsympathetic account of Native Americans and glosses over Spanish atrocities." Borba de Moraes credits Roberston with writing the "first history of the discovery and Spanish conquest of America based on ample bibliographical information and documents in the Simancas archives. . . . The bibliography at the end of the second volume is remarkable for the time." Franklin D. Roosevelt owned the first Venice edition. N. B.
