An easily accessible guide to a broad range of Maya ruins. It is easy to focus on only the major sites and miss other ones that are very nearby. Even if you are on a well organized tour, Hunter filled out my knowledge of the wider universe of sites in the region. We may not get to them all but we have a much better grasp of what is in the region. A valuable resource to appreciate the wide array of sites and make any trip to the region more valuable.

It has become the standard guide for serious travelers to the great Maya sites of Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras.
