Two thirds of the plates which it contains present specimens of the remains of their architecture, sculpture, historical paintings, and hieroglyphics relative to their division of time, and the system of their calendar. To this representation of their monuments, which are interesting to the philosophical study of man, I have added a few of the most remarkable picturesque views of the new continent.

The description of each plate, as far as the nature of the subject admits, forms a separate treatise.

The characteristic features of nations, like the internal construction of plants, spread over the surface of the globe, were the impression of a primitive type, notwithstanding the variety produced by the difference of climates, the nature of the soil, and the concurrence of many accidental causes. --- Claimed to be an original source for Joseph Smith's Books of Mormon.
