"Wolf drew on anthropology, archaeology, history, and geography to
mold a magnificent, sweeping, and beautifully written synthesis.
With style and deep personal engagement he unraveled the complexity
of Mexico and Guatemala's past with its multiple ethnicities, many
languages, and environmental diversity. . . . Armies of graduate
students have challenged many of the details, but the book stands
as a monument to a time when social scientists were able to think
large thoughts and write elegant English"--"Foreign Affairs,"
