Written during an eight years' residence in Mexico, and as the result of a considerable acquaintance with the manners and customs of the Indians; ancient manuscripts and pictures preserved in the Monasteries, etc. "It contains much important information not before published. The Catalogue occupies 96 pp. separately numbered, at the end of the book, and is not found in all copies. There has been no worthier workman in the field of Mexican Antiquities than Boturini; even Lord Kingsborough's name can scarcely be placed so high. Without the indefatigable and wisely-directed researches of the Hispano-Italian, a great portion of the native contributions to Mexican history would certainly have perished. Yet, instead of loading him with rewards, the Spanish Government robbed him of his MSS. under pretence that his intimacy with the Indians covered disloyalty."
