Throughout his life, Antonio Lorenzo has jealously guarded each and every one of the stories that each of the characters he has cited in his publications has been telling him.

The presentation ceremony, which was carried out with strict security measures, was very crowded. In it, the writer felt very supported by his family, the mayor of the San Bartolomé City Council, Alexis Tejera, the Councilor for Culture, Isidro Pérez, the official chroniclers of Teguise, Francisco Hernández and Esteban Rodríguez de Yaiza, as well as friends and supporters.
