You will never understand North and South American history without reading this book.
First buy and read 1491. Then you will need to buy and read this book. (And now for the rest of the story...) These books are thick, with lot's of fascinating detail, but Mann tackles the amazing (and perhaps shocking) story of the impact of European contact with North and South American native peoples with a journalist's ability to explain the science in terms everyone can understand without dumbing down the content. Extraordinary breadth and scope of research, a balanced perspective, and a very compelling and sympathetic description of the tragic consequences, particularly through the rapid spread of European diseases, for indigenous societies.
