Hello! I'm Peruvian born, however, my parents immigrated to the United States, and as such my information about the history of Peru is limited to what happened prior to the immigration of my parents, and well of course they are heavily biased. I've tried looking for some books online but a lot of them seem to be geared towards backpackers or focus on the "Inca" and not any other Quechan ethnicity. I'm wary about the way the "West" views cultures like Andean ones (human sacrifice is always the headliner!). I would love to learn more about the country I left, although I know the history is vast, I'm eager to learn about as much as I can (I plan this research to be lifelong). I am incredibly interested in Tawantinsuyo and the different Quechuan ethnicities, as well as more modern history (1800-1980) and of course anything in between.
I'm definitely not opposed to Spanish-only sources! (but I really do prefer English sources as I grew up in the US!)
Thank you all so much!
I have a few recommendations!
Sabine Hyland has written several books on Peruvian history which might interest you if you are interested in the early colonial period. The Jesuit and the Incas is about a 16th century mestizo Jesuit called Blas Valera. He was cast out by the Jesuits for arguing that the Inca already worshipped the Christian God, and that as much of Inca religion and culture should be preserved during conversion as possible. The Jesuit and the Incas is about his life, and Gods of the Andes is a translation of his text about Inca religion. Hyland has also written about the Chanka, one of the peoples who were conquered by the Inca, in the early colonial period in her book The Chanka and the Priest. If you have a free Academia.edu account, I also recommend checking out her articles there because she has written a lot of cutting-edge articles recently about khipus.
For another non-Inca group, I just got and am really enjoying Chachaopoya Textiles: The Laguna de los Cóndores Textiles in the Museo Leymebamba, Chachapoyas, Peru ed. by Lena Bjerregaard. The Chachapoya are another group who were conquered by the Inca. They lived in the cloud forests and were intermediaries between Amazonian societies and highland societies like the Inca and Wari. This book is well-illustrated with a mix of artefacts and archaeological sites. It's focused on the artistic side of the Chachapoya but gives a lot of other information about their culture.
Going back further in time, for the Tiwanaku culture I recommend Pariti: The Ceremonial Pottery of an Island in Lake Titicaca by Antti Korpisaari and Martti Pärssinen. The Tiwanaku lived around Lake Titicaca between about 1500 and 1000 years ago. Pariti was home to a great archaeological find in the 90s - it's an island in Lake Titicaca where they found a ton of ritually broken pottery effigies of Tiwanaku elites. I find that having archaeological artefacts, especially showing what people looked like, can really help you connect to learning about an archaeological culture, so this book is good for that (and it's free on Academia.edu!).
Speaking of Lake Titicaca, there's Ritual and Pilgrimage in the Ancient Andes: The Islands of the Sun and Moon by Brian S. Bauer and Charles Stanish. Lake Titicaca has been sacred to so many different societies in the Andes. This book mainly focuses on the Inca usage of the lake but also looks at earlier times.
For a more general overview of the art historical side of things, I recommend Art of the Andes by Rebecca Stone-Miller. It's a little outdated in that a lot of the most recent finds, particularly concerning the Wari culture, are not included. But it's a really great overview of different cultures in the Andes going far back into prehistoric times. There's not as much on the colonial and later periods, but since the pre-colonial period is often talked about in terms of archaeological cultures, this book is really helpful for orienting yourself to that.
More can be said, but the AH reading list is always a helpful first port of call. The section on Latin America includes a good variety of books that cover Andean history.
