Horrible Histories: The Angry Aztecs

Powerful priests, weird warriors, and cunning Conquistadors… the angry Aztecs knew how to make history exciting! From their gruesome gods to the horrible habit of drinking live toads in wine, and from a very deadly ball game to the terrible temples where freaky Aztec priests ripped out human hearts, this is history with extra nasty bits left in!
