The book that every people interested in Mezoamerican culture must have. The shear amount of information on ruler`s, their deeds and their architectural achievements is so overwhelming, one has to read the book many times till starting to acquire seom comprehending. To fully understand the importance of written inscriptions sure we need some knowledge about the Maya writing system, but just for making comparisons with the European dynasties (and very shocking ones at that) the book serves well.
