Sobre este artículo
New York: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1989. Book. Illus. by Persis B. Clarkson, Illustrator. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Clean hardcover first edition, first printing in clean unclipped dust jacket. Black paper-covered boards with green cloth spine, gold decoration on cover, gold lettering on spine. Slight fading to black boards. No fraying or wear. Binding is tight and square, hinges are sound. Pages and edges are clean, with clean endpapers - no names, writing or marks. Illustrations by Persis B. Ckarkson; maps by David Bosse. 451 pages. Clean dust jacket is unchipped, no tears, not price clipped; enclosed in new archival quality removable mylar cover. An exploration of the lands of the ancient Maya and the heritage of the five million people who preserve a Mayan identity today. Author's circular travels begin in tiny Belize, take him through the Guatemalan jungle and into the blood-stained highlands of that republic and end in Mexico, where the Maya are afflicted by massive development. Blending archaeology, history, ethnology, and journalism, Wright creates a fascinating profile of the Maya and employs their famously sophisticated calendar in the narrative of his own journey..
