“The present volume follows the general plan [of the series]. The author has aimed at a descriptive treatment following regional divisions, directed to essential conceptions rather than exhaustive classification.” (Booklist) “The book includes the Antilles, Mexico, Yucatan, Central America, the Andes (North and South), the tropical forests, the Orinoco and Guiana, the Amazon and Brazil, and finally, the pampas to the Land of fire. The notes and bibliography comprise almost a fifth of the volume. More than forty illustrations add to the interest of a text that really illustrates itself.” (Bookm)

“The book is more than a succinct history. It embodies the poetry of ancient days and the cruelty and the splendor of ancient ways, without abandoning the calm attitude that wards the scientist from hasty or sentimental judgments.” I: Goldberg
