After the disappointing results having hired two translators for The Old Missions book, no.

We printed a few Spanish editions, but when a Mexican educator read it, he said wrong words were used and it didn't read right.

The hunger for accurate historical details will need to expressed by enough Spanish speakers. It is possible, but it needs passion so the story can be told as if by an old Spaniard around the campfire and not just converting English words to Spanish.
