Lost Temple of the Aztecs

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Greg Ruhl. Following a brief account of the archaeological excavation of the Great Temple of the Aztecs in the 1970s, Tanaka describes the rise of Aztec power and its influential culture and the conquering of Moctezuma and the Aztecs by Cort_s and his Spanish soldiers. Informative sidebars and color photos and reproductions complement the engrossing text, which is marred by unnecessary fictionalized dialogue. Bib., glos.
