Grammatical aside, there is no other treatise on pre-Columbian America and the Aztec Calendar as complete, concise and thought provoking as this one. I didn't notice the grammatical error until the fellow from Tejas spotted it. I was too amazed at having my perception of Native America shattered. After reading many books on the Aztecs, I bought this book and was favorably impressed by the depth, continuity and treatment of the entire subject matter. There is so much information in this book its astounishing. The bibliography contains over 200 sources. Direct eyewitnesses from the 16th century are quoted. The Time-Line is great. I will be referring to this book for years to come.

This book is clear, non-technical, and easy to read and understand. People interested in the subject will find it useful.

When I first got the book I thought it wasn't very big and wouldn't have much new info. But it has so much information! I was very very happy with it. So many books on the Aztecs don't tell much about the aztec calendar but this book explains so much and goes into a lot of detail. I highly recommend this book for anyone that has an interest in knowing more about what the aztec calendar stands for.

This book is pretty well designed. The pages are an off-white yellow tone. The information is fairly thorough but aimed more at somewhere between pop readers and light-duty researchers. So it is definitely worth a read. However, I did not see any reason to read this book more than once which shows some shortcomings for this vying to be a reference book.

This book is the first of its kind. all in one book. before you would have to purchase several books. thanks to the writers research you only need this one book. i recommend if you are studying the calendar. you will not be disappointed...!!!!!

Tlazo'camati, my book came nicely packed & secured and in no time I had it in my hands. Great service. Thank You.
