Excerpt from Early South American NewspapersThe earliest news publication of which we know, printed in South America, was issued to supply the popular demand for information regarding the capture of the English free booter, Richard Hawkins, and his ship, The Dainty, 03 the Peruvian coast in 1594, just ten years after the printing press began its work at Lima. It was a quarter century later when the publication of occasional news-sheets, the forerunners of the modern Extra, began to become more or less regular. In 1620 appeared an Account of important events in Peru, and in the year following News from Castille, which arrived in October of the present year 1621, and Summary of the News from the Court, with the Beginning of the New Reign of his Catholic Majesty, our Sovereign King Philip the Fourth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
