"The Old and the New Peru: A Story of the Ancient Inheritance and the Modern Growth and Enterprise of a Great Nation" by Marie Robinson Wright is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores Peru's rich history, from its early civilizations and the iconic Inca Empire to the transformations that shaped modern Peru. The narrative focuses on the significant cultural, political, and social developments that define the nation, providing insight into both its ancient legacy and contemporary progress. At the start of the book, the author introduces Peru as a nation steeped in history, known for its archaeological treasures and influential pre-Columbian cultures. The opening portion details the archaeological significance of ancient sites like Pachacámac and discusses the various theories regarding the origins of Peruvian civilization. It emphasizes the role of archaeological exploration in uncovering the country’s past and sets the stage for a deeper investigation into both the remarkable ancient cultures and the nation’s evolution into a modern republic.
