Other famous contemporary writers whose works also furnish material for historians were: Bartolome de las Casas, Francisco Lopez de Gomara, Gonzalo Oviedo y Valdez, Bernardino de Sahagun, Motolinia, Peter Martyr, Antonio de Herrera. The works of all these writers are extant, principally in Spanish, and they were written in the sixteenth century. In the seventeenth century Juan de Torquemada wrote, and in the nineteenth numerous works appeared upon Mexico. Among these may be mentioned those of Manuel Orozco y Berra, Manuel Icazbalceta Raminez, all modern Mexicans. Other authors, whether of historical or other books and at varying epochs, are: Clavigero, Duran, Tezozomoc, Camargo, Siguenza, Pizarro, Acosta, Gage, Lorenzana, Olarte, Vetancourt, Solis, Cavo, Landa, Robertson, Irving, Humboldt, Helps, Bancroft, Kingsborough. Archaeological and Ethnological works are represented by the following: Bancroft, Native Races of the Pacific States. 5 vols. New York. 1874-6. Bandelier, The Art of War among the Ancient Mexicans.

For a fuller list of these, see the excellent volume on Mexico of the International Bureau of the American Republics. Washington. 1904. Of books on mining an excellent volume for reference is: Southworth's Mines of Mexico. Of mining and natural resources generally, a large complete work has been issued in English, Spanish, and French, entitled: El Florecimiento de Mexico. Mexico. 1906. This work is published in Mexico, written by various authors, under the patronage of the Government. It is a valuable book of reference, but somewhat prolix, and the type is small and the volume unwieldy. After the manner of books issued in Spanish-American countries, too much space is taken up with adulations of public men. There are no less than four full-page portraits of President Diaz in it. Other general works are: Mexico and the United States. Abbott. New York. 1869. Guia General de la Republicas Mexicana. Mexico. 1899. Barrett, Standard Guide to Mexico. Mexico. 1900.
