Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Skystone, Vol. 1: A Romance of Prehistoric Arizona The introduction to a romance does not, usually, receive much attention from the reader, but an exception should be made in this case, for the reason that what is here written is necessary to a proper comprehension of what follows. In the Salt River valley, in central Arizona, the ruins of at least seven large cities are conspicuous, and the lines of ancient irrigating canals can be traced over the level land for miles. It has been assumed, with some reason, that the ancient inhabitants of the valley were akin to the pre-Aztec race that built the grand temples that yet rear their heads in Mexico and Central America. They lived in adobe and cement houses, often several stories in height, and their main castles or temples were of grand size, defended by walls and towers and en circled by moats. Their government was probably a theocracy, similar to that of the Hebrews after the exodus. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
