In this groundbreaking work on science, history, and archeology, Charles C. Mann radically changed our understanding of America before Columbus’ arrival in 1492.
Contrary to what so many Americans learn in school, pre-Columbian Indians did not settle in a pristine desert; rather, there were a large number of Indians who actively designed and actively influenced the country around them. The impressive Aztec capital Tenochtitlan had running water and impeccably clean streets and was larger than any modern European city. Mexican cultures have created wheat in a specialized breeding process that was first mentioned as genetic engineering. In fact, the Indians did not live easily on earth, but designed and manipulated their world so that we are just beginning to understand.
