Ancient Mexico: An Introduction to the Pre-Hispanic Cultures
Frederick Peterson. Capricorn Books: 1962.
This book is essentially a lengthy encyclopedia entry: a bit dry to read, but filled with the most amount of general information in the least amount of space.
Peterson clearly has passion and appreciation of the art and artifacts of the precolumbian cultures, and is therefore most interesting to read when he discusses these items. His book is so fact-filled, however, that any page will be of interest.
