The Search for the Codex Cardona
“The Search for the Codex Cardonais an amusing, informative, and novelistic scholarly book. It develops its topic rapidly with concise and shortsentences, which makes it easy to read. This book could serve undergraduatestudents and lay readers as an introduction to Mexican painted booksand graduate students and scholars as an introduction to the virtuallyunknown and now lost Codex Cardona, a possibly invaluable source of information about the Aztecs. In this sense,The Search for the Codex Cardonamakes a unique contribution in that it focuses not on an available scholarly resource but on one that has never been available and that may no longer exist.” - Jongsoo Lee,The Latin Americanist
