About this book

Henry Charles Lea follows the Spanish Inquisition beyond Spain itself, tribunal by tribunal, through Sicily, Naples, Sardinia, Milan, the Canary Islands, Mexico, Peru and New Granada. He gives special weight to the American colonies, drawing on the research of the Chilean scholar José Toribio Medina and on letters between local officials and the Supreme Council in Spain. Lea argues that the conduct of these tribunals damaged colonial government and fed discontent. The volume came out in 1908, after his four-volume history of the Spanish Inquisition.
