Daily Life of the Aztecs, on the Eve of the Spanish Conquest

"Soustelle's great book about the Aztecs . . . takes us deep into the life of this great society. . . . Soustelle has the rare quality of entering into the minds of those he is studying and seeing things from their point of view. . . . (His) book is one of the best ever written about the Aztecs, his portrait of their society is a triumph of scholarship, understanding, and literary skill."--The Times Literary Supplement
"Probably the best general summary available of Aztec culture, both for the general reader and for the student."--Hipanic American Historical Review
