A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies is much better in terms of reflecting the human cost from a contemporary of the obliteration of 150 million natives and Africans for the enrichment of Europeans. US Americans eventually got into the act too with slavery, banana wars, taking land and peoples that didn't belong to it, Monroe doctrine, CIA-backed coups, and funding and training right-wing death squads like The School of the Americas.
