Welcome to My Country series.
This book offers a cursory overview of Peru. Architecture, language, food, government, history, people, arts, and sports are some of the topics covered. Though not in-depth, this volume does provide useful information for report writers. A map, color photos, and a list of related websites are included. Bib., glos., ind.

Countries of the World series.
Tour book-like overviews of Peruvian and Costa Rican geography, history, and arts are followed by more intensive looks at subjects including major exports, archaeological sites, unique animals, and religious practices. Numerous sidebars and captions direct readers to different parts of the text and distract from the flow of information. Varied photos and a map illustrate the books. Bib., glos., ind.
