He describes the fall of Utatl???n to the conquistadors, and the Quich???s' efforts to retain a semblance of their political structure and belief system. Drawing upon archaeological discoveries and native and Spanish written documents, Carmack has produced a work that is essential to understanding the Quich??? people and indispensable to a full appreciation of the immortal work the Popol Vuh , the "first book of the New World."
