'The entire book is the product of judicious reflection by an able mind fully abreast of a widely dispersed literature...Perhaps most of all Katz is interested in the movement toward larger, more complex social and political structures in possible parallel development to the Old World. The most original part of his book lies in his examination of the Triple Alliance and the Inca Empire in such terms' AMERICAN HISTORICAL REVIEW

A fine and lucid study of the cultural history of the ancient American civilizations from the first peoples to the Spanish Conquest of 1517.
In this classic work, Friedrich Katz traces the development of the civilisations of pre-Columbian America from the village communities to prosperous city states culminating in the magnificent empires of the Aztecs and Inca, giving detailed descriptions of the inhabitants and the cultural sphere of Mesoamerica.
