"Quoique Herrera ne fut pas sorti d'Europe, les excellens matériaux qu'il eut à sa disposition le mirent à portée d'écrire avec exactitude l'histoire de la découverte de l'Amérique et de tout ce qui suivit cet événement mémorable. Il se rend à lui-même le témoignage d'avoir travaillé avec une ardeur infatigable à découvrir la vérité: la critique ne l'a jamais contredit."--Biog. Univ.

"Of all the Spanish writers, Herrera furnishes the fullest and most accurate information concerning the conquest of Mexico, as well as every other transaction of America. The industry and attention with which he consulted not only the books, but the original papers and public records, which tended to throw any light upon the subject of his enquiries, were so great, and he usually judges of the evidence before him with so much impartiality and candour, that his decades may be ranked among the most judicious and useful historical collections."--Robertson.
