3.The Last Days of the IncasThe Last Days of the Incas
from Tantor Media
Price: $59.81

Customer Review:
When I saw this title I wondered why anyone would attempt a book that would compete with John Hemming's "Conquest of the Inca". I then realized "Conquest" is more than 50 years old. MacQuarrie's research is astonishingly complete with what must have been months if not years of 'feet on the ground'... more info

from Back Bay Books
Price: $8.67

Customer Review:
I wanted to research the "true" story of the demise of Custer and found the book to be extremely detailed and even-handed. The writer was recognized as one of our best Western authors, with good reason I would say.

from Holt Paperbacks
Price: $8.97

Customer Review:
This is the Classic it was made to be by history. It is the story of conflict, greed, war crimes, torture embedded in the Euro-American DNA. It could well be India, Africa or the Middle East in illustrating the capacity for cruelty and the conspiracy between the Cross and the Crown to demonize... more info

Eileen Power's Medieval People sets out to study the Middle Ages not from the viewpoint of an Historical abstraction, but rather from that of the people who lived during the age. It is an account of six individuals who lived during the MA's; Bodo, a Frankish Peasant; Marco Polo, the famous Venetian... more info
