Expanded and Updated Edition
New Foreword by J. Jorge Klor de Alva
In this updated edition of a classic, Leon-Portilla has included accounts from native Aztec descendents across the centuries. These texts bear witness to the extraordinary vitality of an oral tradition that perserves the viewpoints of the vanquished instead of the victors.
“A moving and powerful account, a unique reading experience which should not be missed by any reader interested in history.” -Los Angeles Times
