Book Synopsis Five Suns by : Stephen J. Pyne
Book excerpt: Narrating Mexico's evolution of fire through five eras--pre-human, pre-Hispanic, colonial, industrializing (1880-1980), and contemporary (1980-2015)--this volume relies on the myth of the "five suns" that the Aztecs used to characterize their history. It completes a North American trilogy of fire histories that also includes the United States and Canada.
