The Incas and Other Andean Civilizations

Summary: Tour the archeological sites!
Review: This book has stunning photos of pre-colombian treasures. It's almost like a trip to a museum. Unfortunately, some pieces are enlarged way out of proportion, making scale difficult to gauge. Chapters include several aspects of daily life of the Incas. Also included are photo chapters on several important archelogical sites. A detailed chapter is included on the excavation on the treasures of Sipan from by Walter Alva, one of the principal investigators. This will look great on your coffee table and is a pleasure to page through and read.
