History of the Spanish Conquest of Yucatan and of the Itzas Spanish Conquest of Yucatan and of the Itzas
Cambridge: Peabody Museum, 1917. Paperback. [xvii], 206p., errata slip tipped in, softbound in plain printed brown yapp-edged wraps, the overlapped margins ragged with a corner-tip loss. Else sound, and clean and unmarked, a very good copy, if somewhat uglified by the irregular marginal damage. Papers of Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnology, Harvard University, Vol VII.
"This Paper is the result of work carried on by Mr. Means as a graduate student during the years 1915-1917. It consists mainly of translations of early Spanish books and manuscripts" - from opening "Note" - translation of the "crabbed" eccentric handwriting of the period nearly as difficult as translating from pictograph material.
