| 1. |  | Conquistador: Hernan Cortes, King Montezuma, and the Last Stand of the Aztecs
from Bantam
Price: $18.15
Customer Review:
This book covers the Cortes expedition, from the landing along the coast through the destruction of the Aztec capital, with a short wrap up of the featured players. I was glad that the author resisted the temptation to go on and on. He found his ending point and took it. For those wanting more,... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 2. | ![]() | Broken Spears: The Aztec Account Of The Conquest Of Mexico
from Diane Pub Co
Customer Review:
A very good introductory book to the Conquest of Latin America. Though I do have to say, use only as an introduction. It is not a very good book to cite for any research. A very good example of showing both sides of the story; Spanish vs. Native. | 4.0 / 5.0

| 3. |  | An Illustrated Dictionary of the Gods and Symbols of Ancient Mexico and the Maya
from Thames & Hudson
Price: $13.57
Customer Review:
I find this book to be an easy reference for lots of the symbols found in the various early cultures of Central America. Although not an extensive description of each symbol or deity, it gives a general definition. This might be best for someone new to the many early cultures of Mexico. It can... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 4. |  | Mexico: From the Olmecs to the Aztecs, Sixth Edition
from Thames & Hudson
Price: $16.47
Customer Review:
Just wondering why a rebuttal to the pro-"La Raza" racism found in the previous posts was deleted while Miguel's anti-Christian rhetoric is allowed to stand. I have a whole lot of Mexican brothers and sisters who are proud of who they are without throwing whitey (and Jesus) in the dirt.

| 5. |  | The Codex Borgia: A Full-Color Restoration of the Ancient Mexican Manuscript
from Dover Publications
Price: $18.85
Customer Review:
This Codex is remarkable at any price. The colors and reproductions are simply gorgeous and the text is helpful. Present are a bewildering number of religious pictograms, some calendric and other representing the mystical or dreamlike journey of the strange character 'one-eye.'
The characters... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

| 6. |  | Woman Who Glows in the Dark: A Curandera Reveals Traditional Aztec Secrets of Physical and Spiritual Health
from Tarcher
Price: $10.85
Customer Review:
I knew nothing about this subject before reading this book and I have to say as a former R.N. myself I was enthralled by the concepts of healing explained in this book. It has given me a lot to think about...a whole new perspective on healing.
I found it very easy to read and enjoyable. Thank... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 7. | ![]() | Aztec Autumn
from audible.com
Price: $13.12
Customer Review:
It's said that everyone has one good novel in them. In Jennings' case this may have been "Aztec". Certainly, "Aztec Autumn" isn't nearly as good. It's almost as if he's run out of ideas and is trying too hard. An example is his use of sexual scenes and discriptions. He overdoes it and they are... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

from Wiley-Blackwell
Price: $21.09
Customer Review:
I've read a few books on Aztecs and this one is somewhat unique in that in addition to using textual sources, it gives a good deal of focus to the archaeolgical record as well. This perspective gives a fuller view of Aztec society as a whole, and illuminates the lives of commoners as well as those... more info | 4.5 / 5.0
