摘要
摘要
This highly praised series of books has been in print since the 1950s (launched originally by Franklin Watts himself). Today's First Books provide engaging, in-depth introductions to subjects in all areas of the middle-grade curriculum, including science, social studies, and the arts.
Illustrated with color and historical photography and art, each First Book is chaptered, includes an index, a for-further-reading list and, where appropriate, a glossary and original maps.

Gr 3-5-- These entries don't add anything new to the existing material about these three major Native American civilizations. Each is a chronological account of the beginnings, rise, and fall of the culture, and all have a final chapter that summarizes either the lasting accomplishments and/or the current conditions of the descendants. Little mention is made of the Incas' contributions, but much attention is paid to the dismal state of most native Peruvians and Bolivians. In both Aztecs and Incas , the authors point out some of the reasons the Spanish conquests were relatively quick and wrought such long-term devastating effects. One good map at the beginning of each book and numerous small full-color photographs and illustrations are worthwhile additions, as are the lists for further reading. --David N.
