A fantastic book has very exciting history of the Aztecs well-written had me hooked from beginning to end, tried to order this book and it was very very rare I can't even buy it I got this book from the library luckily. I would highly recommend this book if you're interested in the Aztecs it was very detailed and very rich with information about all the people of the time period.

الكتاب رائع جدا ، اجمل مافي الكتاب شرح الرسومات و المجسمات و اللوحات التي خرجت بها هذه الحضارة ، كان لهذه الحضارة الكثير من المميزات ، من مثل انهم عاشوا في مرحلة زمنية في منازل كبيرة تضم كل افراد القرية ، كانوا يحبون الرياضة و يلعبون الكرة ، كانوا يكرهون السياسة في مراحل تطورهم الاولى .

Libro de fotografías de todo tipo de arte y ruinas precolombinas de México central y norte. No obstante el título, incluye desde las primeros aldeas preclásicas hasta la conquista española; los aztecas propiamente dichos sólo son un capítulo. Hasta tiene unas páginas sobre las culturas de lo que hoy es el suroeste de EE.UU. Las fotografías son muy grandes y vistosas, aunque a veces es difícil adivinar el tamaño original de los objetos. Los textos, aunque por supuesto resumidos, son una buena introducción a la historia de las culturas.

De belles photos. Pour le reste... c'est un peu trop sec pour moi mais je suppose que ça serait mieux passé par petite dose.
