A lively, eloquent guide to the Maya ruins of Mexico's Yucatan peninsula, as entertaining today as when it was first published in 1843, Stephens' guide recounts his two trips made to the region between 1839 and 1842. It includes extensive accounts of 44 Maya sites as well as of Yucatan folkways, manners, dress, ceremonies, amusements--all of which makes this a great travel book. Now published in a single-volume edition, "Incidents of Travel in Yucatan" captures for the modern reader and traveler the excitement of archaeological exploration and discovery.
