About this product

1491 Second Edition by Charles C. Mann is a nonfiction book that re-examines the history of the Americas before European contact, challenging long-held assumptions about indigenous populations. It presents evidence that pre-Columbian societies were large, complex, and actively shaped their environments through agriculture, urban planning, and engineering. The book explores how civilizations like the Aztecs built advanced cities with infrastructure such as running water and clean streets, while indigenous cultures developed corn through early genetic modification. Drawing on science, archaeology, and history, it offers a transformative perspective on a world previously misunderstood as sparsely inhabited wilderness. This revised edition expands on the original narrative with new research and insights.
