The Aztec – Man and Tribe (1958) by Victor W. von Hagen
Published by New American Library
Sold by Crappy Old Books

Dig into the rich and brutal legacy of Mesoamerica with this classic slice of mid-century anthropology. In The Aztec – Man and Tribe, noted explorer and historian Victor W. von Hagen delivers a vivid and accessible portrait of the Aztec civilization—its warriors, priests, emperors, and everyday citizens. Originally published in 1958 by New American Library, this volume blends scholarly insight with the dramatic flair of a true field adventurer.

Expect blood rites, obsidian blades, and empire-building—all served with the slightly outdated confidence of a man who’s probably worn a pith helmet unironically. Whether you’re a casual history buff, a Mesoamerican mythology nerd, or just like your non-fiction with a hint of Cold War-era swagger, this book is a fascinating (if occasionally dusty) window into the world of the Aztecs.

Offered in acceptably yellowed condition by Crappy Old Books, where forgotten paperbacks still matter.

I have glued the loose book blocks back in but it still has an older cellotape repair along the spine that detracts from its Grade A classification, as such, whilst its quite readable etc, I have classified it as poor, because if its not absolutely perfect, its poor, I dont expect you to consider second best.
