A different kind of tour book

As the sub-title suggests, this is a tour-guide for the land of Maya mysteries, in the Yucatan, and also in neighboring areas. It is delightful and enlightening reading, although some of the information is a little of-of-date (copyright 1987,etc, but the 2004 revised edition didn't catch all the needed revisions). Nevertheless it's worth having for its different slant & abridged information on the sights & the history. The author also includes interesting information,like the possibility that Coba was ruled by a female; see p.102 for more on that. Pack it!
