"This review really should be a 3.5 star as the book is, in general, quite good but I felt that the writing didn't grab me as much as his books on the Maya.
As a primer to the various civilizations in Mexico with a view towards their architecture and art, this book is perfect. It could use a few more images, and maybe a little less focus on pottery."
"This book was beautiful! It was incredible in that it broadened my perception of beauty and the power of art - something that I did not think was possible at the time. Before reading this book, I had absolutely no connection to Mexico's history. I discovered that it's art historical tradition is complex, multi-faceted, and thoroughly fascinating. For the prehistoric and ancient peoples of this land create art and life were inseperable."
