Müller, J. G., Geschichte der Amerikanischen Urreligion. (Berlin, 1867.) [[377]]
An industrious compilation, which must be used with caution. Its quotations are nearly all at second-hand and its hypotheses are not a little strained.
Nadaillac, Marquis de, Prehistoric America (trans.). (London, 1885.)
Very much in the nature of a popular presentation of the subject.

This exhaustive work, which deals with the evolution of culture on the American continent, is admirably conceived, and is obviously the result of much thought and research. As regards mythology, however, the author, although well versed in the early writings relating to Mexico, seems to have been unacquainted with those of modern specialists on the subject, and this, of course, limits his outlook. Nor does he display any acquaintance with the Mexican native codices.
