Cautivado por el dominico, Agustín Yáñez presenta una exhaustiva revisión histórica que intenta esclarecer las cualidades del personaje y no del mito, sin omitir las contradicciones que signaron su vida y lo hicieron blanco de los ataques del hispanismo intransigente y bandera del antiespañolismo. A más de quinientos años de iniciada la lucha de fray Bartolomé, la lectura de este libro motivará a la reflexión de un problema, paradójicamente aún de actualidad, y a conocer los alegatos de una personalidad que se atrevió a trascender su tiempo y las sombras que llevaba a cuestas."--Cubierta
