Moctezuma And The Aztecs

"Moctezuma II was the last elected ruler of the Aztecs (more correctly known as the Mexica). Presiding over a territory that stretched from the Gulf Coast to the Pacific Ocean, his power was reflected in the splendour of his capital's architecture, his command of the prestigious Jaguar and Eagle military orders, and his sacrificial rituals to the gods. For eighteen years his world was unrivalled. This illustrated book presents a concise portrait of this remarkable semi-divine figure - from coronation to dramatic downfall."--Book jacket.
