The Aztecs: Their History, Manners, and Customs offers a focused look at a civilization that still fascinates readers today.
The book blends political history with religious practice, showing how kings were chosen, how feasts united priests and courtiers, and how art, law, and urban planning reflected a sophisticated society.
