   Hmmm,
   Well, I've had a thing for the Aztecs (and similar Pre-Colombian indig 
cultures that I'd superficially just lump together with them--Olmec, Toltec, 
Mayan, what have you for convenience) ever since I first saw this old b&w 
'documentary'  back in the early 70's--a 'You Are There' thing focusing on 
the Conquest of Mexico by Cortez, and narrated by Richard Basehart or 
Alexander Scorby maybe. Sound familiar to anyone? Made me check out all the 
Aztec-related books at my the local library :)
   So yes, I think Aztrec-type stuff would be very, very cool. and I am 
hoping Mr. St. Andre will be interested in sharing his notes with the rest of 
us.  
   Jennings' 'Aztec' , and a book called 'The Broken Spears' (Aztec accounts 
of the Conquest) have both been recommended to me to get into a proper Aztec 
mood. 
   For that matter, on a completely different tack, I'd love to see a 
Hellenic worldbook :)
