Excerpt from America and European Diplomacy to 1648The activities of Ango's captains were directed not only against their Portuguese friends but also against their Spanish enemies. The sensational capture made by one of them of a part of Monte zama's treasure has already been referred to. In 1523 and 1525 the Cortes of Castile complained of the frequent and intolerable depre dations committed by the French at sea, and their feeling appears to be re¿ected in the treaty Of Madrid in 1526.The question Of admitting the French to the American trade seems to have been discussed in the negotiations for the franco-spanish truce Of 1538, as it certainly was in connection with the treaty Of 1544. In 1541 the Emperor had been greatly disturbed by Cartier's plan to colonize in Canada. Despairing of keeping the French altogether away from the new world, Charles V was willing to come to terms with them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
