false <![CDATA[Aztec]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1175720974m/550454.jpg 550454 23 Aztec is the extraordinary story of the last and greatest native civilization of North America. Told in the words of one of the most robust and memorable characters in modern fiction, Mixtli-Dark Cloud, Aztec reveals the very depths of Aztec civilization from the peak and feather-banner splendor of the Aztec Capital of Tenochttlan to the arrival of Hernn Corts and his conquistadores, and their destruction of the Aztec empire. The story of Mixtli is the story of the Aztecs themselves-a compelling, epic tale of heroic dignity and a colossal civilizations rise and fall. 1866705 1980 Aztec total:934|5:437|4:286|3:145|2:38|1:29| 934 3865 1311 174 5 5 false false Tue Aug 21 00:00:00 -0700 2001 Fri Feb 01 12:59:30 -0800 2008 Fri Feb 01 13:02:13 -0800 2008 Whew!
