Summary: Informative and Reader-Friendly
Comment: Read and Gonzalez have a lot of informative things to say about legends in Central America and its mixing with Christianity. They discuss important issues like the passing of time that can alter people's beliefs. The range of topics is extensive, and they handle them with a special talent. This is an important work with deep content but it is reader-friendly. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the Aztec and Maya.

Summary: Better to Try Miller
Comment: As an amateur archeologist I have interest in the ancient Maya, but this book let me down. Miller did a much better job with "An Illustrated Dictionary of the Gods and Symbols of Ancient Mexico and the Maya" (which is cheaper). Many of the illustrations were poorly composed. On a positive note, it had some interesting syntheses.
