Juan Fermin De Aycinena: Central American Colonial Entrepreneur, 1729-1796

Rating:
Summary: Very interesting and the subject well researched
Review: Being a descendant of Juan Fermin de Aycinena I became interested in knowing more about the family background. This book not only consists about a biography but also gives a very well elaborated description of the geographical, social, political, religious and economic situation of Guatemala. In a strong manner, the book connects his place of birth with Juan Fermin's "mission" to Central America. I've always been curious about my family's past, and through my grandfather and parents I have been able to know about it. This book opened an even larger door to the first Aycinena who went to Guatemala.
