Unlike most studies of the Incas, this book reconstructs the daily life not only of the ruling Inca elite but also of the rest of the society, including the conquered peoples.  From food and drink to religious rituals, the major aspects of life at all levels in the Inca empire are here described and explained in a clear, accessible way.  Over fifty illustrations are included, as are a historical timeline of the Inca empire, a glossary, and a bibliography.

Michael A. Malpass is Professor of Anthropology, Ithaca College.
