Trade Review
"While there are many books on the fall of the Inca Empire, there are few that provide a general overview of Inca history and social organization. Daviess volume fills this glaring gap in the literature... The book, which is written in a clear and engaging style ... will be of value to introductory Andean students and of special importance to those who have had some exposure to Inca prehistory and now want to grapple with complex issues of source materials."Latin American Antiquity
