Summary "Anahuac: or, Mexico and the Mexicans, Ancient and Modern" by Edward B. Tylor is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work embarks on an exploration of Mexico's diverse landscape, rich culture, and turbulent history through the eyes of the author, who traveled the country in the spring of 1856. Tylor presents a vivid portrayal of both ancient and modern aspects of Mexican life, engaging with its people, geography, and antiquities. The beginning of the book introduces Tylor and his companion, Mr. Christy, as they set out on their journey through Cuba and into Mexico. They encounter various local customs and significant locations, including the Isle of Pines and the scenic beauty of Cuba. The narrative describes their travel experience—from the unique Cuban transport known as a volante to the examination of their passports, highlighting interesting anecdotes about local life. The chapter opens with glimpses of tropical landscapes and the people inhabiting them, establishing a sense of adventure that foreshadows the exploration of deeper cultural and historical insights as their journey continues.
