1928 · Mexico
by Palacios, Enrique Juan
Mexico: Taileres Graficos El La Nacion, 1928. Quarto. 215p. Illustrations, some in color. Under the direction of Enrique Juan Palacios this work began preparation in 1926 and was completed in 1928 for the XXIII Congreso de Americanistas as its major contribution. This was among the earliest reports of the Lacadona Jungle which was almost entirely rain forest (today through exploitation less than 10 per cent is rain forest). Maps, photographs, including the folding picture of the Poco-Uinik site (Santa Elena) assisted by Miguel O. de Mendizabal. A good tight copy with spine tape repaired. (Inventory #: 018103)
