Peñafiel, F.: Monumentos del Arte Mexicano Antiguo. Berlin, 1890.
Prescott, W. H.: History of the Conquest of Mexico. Of romantic interest only. Prescott did not study Mexican history for more than two years, and his work is now quite superseded from a historical point of view. Its narrative charm, however, is unassailable.

Serra, Justo (Editor): Mexico, its Social Evolution, &c. 2 vols. Mexico, 1904.
