An excellent book if this ancient America is interesting to you.

Strongly second this recommendation. The book is eye-opening - you won't look at the western hemisphere the same way again.

I've recently read this book and would like to third this recommendation. Eminently readable and illuminating, a great joy. I look forward to reading his follow-up "1493" soon.
