The Journey of Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca

The odyssey of Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca is an extraordinary testament to the human spirit. An unprecedented decade-long death-defying journey through hostile terrain and even more hostile Native tribes make this one of the best adventure stories of ALL-TIME. Out of an initial 300 soldier expedition, only 4 men returned alive. One of them told this narrative. His name was Cabeza de Vaca.
