  • Ponce de León and the Idea of Spanish Florida (1513-1521)

    Ponce de León and the Idea of Spanish Florida (1513-1521)
    Nov 11 2024

    Juan Ponce de León is more famous today for the myths that surround him rather than the man that he was. Living in a brutal time, hot on the heels of the Reconquista and the voyages of Christopher Columbus, de León will leave a mark on the island of Puerto Rico and plant the seed for Spanish Florida. A life of high risk, high reward, violent behavior that will not make de León a modern man, but will make him a household name in the modern world.
