| Publisher Description: 1913. The real interest of American medieval history must ever circle around Mexico and Peru, her golden empires, her sole exemplars of civilization; and it is to the books upon the character of these two nations that we must turn for a romantic interest as curious and as absorbing as that bound up in the history of Egypt or Assyria. Contents: civilization of Mexico; Mexican mythology; myths and legends of the ancient Mexicans; Mayan race and mythology; myths of the Maya; civilization of old Peru; and mythology of Peru. |
