Episode 259: Hernando de Soto (Part Two)

***NOTE: I was not able to upload this episode as one file which is not what I originally planned. So I had to break it in half. In this episode, I begin a deep dive into Hernando de Soto who, in so many ways, absolutely represents the conquistador era. I over Soto's travails through Panama with Balboa, in Nicaragua on his own, in Peru with Pizarro, and, ultimately, to La Florida. Soto would die in the wilds of Arkansas, still searching for that El Dorado he would never find. WebsitePatreon (Free Trial)Western Civ 2.0
