“With The Gospel of the Toltecs , Frank Daz has provided cornerstone research that will guide the footsteps of those who seek to unravel one of the most compelling philosophies known today.”
“With more than 85 illustrations from an original codex, The Gospel of the Toltecs truly meets its objective of teaching the secrets of the Toltecs, since in the indigenous cultures it was common to teach through the pictography.
