The curator of anthropology at The American Museum of Natural History profiles 18 archaeological sites in the US and Canada that contain evidence of mostly early Americans. He does an excellent job of summarizing the data and explaining the techniques clearly to keep the focus on the conclusions scientists have reached about the people and their ways of life. The sites span from 9300 BC to the Little Big Horn. For each he includes a list of further reading and directions for visitors. Photographs, drawings, and maps accompany the text. Annotation c.
