Two professors and an art dealer are invited to bid on a unique Mayan codex in Yucatan. Leaving their classes before the end of term, the professors take off for Yucatan. In the process, they leave their professional ethics behind-the art dealer never had any ethics to begin with. Upon their arrival, all three confirm the document's authenticity, and then they proceed to go for each other's throats. In the midst of the struggle is the lawyer who contacted them, a museum director who wants to steal the book, a revolutionary who wants to use it to buy guns, a detective who intends to arrest them all, and the Mayan owner who uses traditional means to keep what is his. The motley group makes and breaks alliances as they attempt to claim their prize. Murder, sex, and greed permeate their struggle to attain the Mayan codex. In the end, each one will receive what they thoroughly deserve.

This is the classic account of one of the most dramatic episodes in Mexican history--the revolt of the Maya Indians of Yucatán against their white and mestizo oppressors that began in 1847. Within a year, the Maya rebels had almost succeeded in driving their oppressors from the peninsula; by 1855, when the major battles ended, the war had killed or put to flight almost half of the population of Yucatán. A new religion built around a Speaking Cross supported their independence for over fifty years, and that religion survived the eventual Maya defeat and continues today. This revised edition is based on further research in the archives and in the field, and draws on the research by a new generation of scholars who have labored since the book's original publication 36 years ago. One of the most significant results of this research is that it has put a human face on much that had heretofore been treated as semi-mythical. Reviews of the First Edition "Reed has not only written a fine account of the caste war, he has also given us the first penetrating analysis of the social and economic systems of Yucatán in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries." --American Historical Review "In this beautifully written history of a little-known struggle between several contending forces in Yucatán, Reed has added an important dimension to anthropological studies in this area." --American Anthropologist "Not only is this exciting history (as compelling and dramatic as the best of historical fiction) but it covers events unaccountably neglected by historians. . . . This is a brilliant contribution to history. . . . Don't miss this book." --Los Angeles Times "One of the most remarkable books about Latin America to appear in years." --Hispanic American Report
