Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A.: Harry N Abrams Inc, 1998. First Edition. Cloth/hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall. 240p. The author is one of the great experts on ancient Maya and here describes the class of scribes, the "keepers of the holy books" and decodes their symbols, and shows how they used their tools.
