Historical notes:
Havana was formerly known as Villa de San Cristóbal de La Habana. Efforts to protect it from pirates and the English led to its being one of the most heavily fortified cities in the new world.No Spanish original of Coreal's voyages is known, and the identity of the author is frequently questioned. Coreal may be a pseudonym for the real traveler who visited the West Indies, Florida, Mexico, Brazil, Uruguay, and Peru.
