William Ferguson's classic photographic portrayal of the major pre-Columbian ruins of Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, and Honduras is now available in a completely revised edition. Magnificent aerial and ground photographs give both armchair and actual visitors unparalleled views of fifty-one ancient cities. The restored areas of each site and their interesting and exotic features are shown within each group of ruins. The authors have thoroughly revised the text for this new edition, and they have added over 30 new photographs and illustrations as well as a completely new chapter by R E W Adams on regional states and empires in ancient Mesoamerica.
William M Ferguson and Richard E W Adams
"The photo selections of architecture and site plans give a superb cross-section of each ruin. . . . almost as good as being there." "This extremely accessible study will be of great interest to the student of Mesoamerica and the general reader interested in uncovering the past." "An armchair travelogue through Mesoamerican prehistory."
