Cabeza de Vaca was one of the last four survivors. they landed in America and got captured by the Indians and were enslaved for years. they the became known for curing people and not stealing which is note what their "race" was known for. they later became widely known and respected among the Indians to the point that the writer described them as "prized possessions". the story ended with Cabeza de Vaca returning back to Spain and presenting his ideas of humane colonization of the New world in the court of Charles V. And after years of persuasion, he was sent to South America to attempt to carry out his plans but with little success. He spent the last years of his life in Andalusia telling the stories of the New world.
