Quoting dj text: "..written in the 1550s..only eighteen chapters were actually available until the 1980s when the remaining sixty-four chapters were discovered.. Although written by a Spaniard, it presents an authentic Inca worldview drawn from personal experiences and oral traditions told to Betanzos by his Inca wife Dona Angelina, and other members of her aristocratic family"
