Documents the rise and fall of ancient Indian cultures in the U.S. and Canada through examinations of ruins, burial mounds, and artifacts
Review:
"In "Exploring Ancient Native America, author David Hurst Thomas...works hard to tell the story of ancient America "strictly in terms of places and artifacts you can see for yourself..."he seems eager to steer clear of the Eurocentric version of American history and enhances his fact-filled reports with perspectives from a host of Native American tribes...The work is scholarly but easy to read... This is not a tour book that tells you where to eat or where to stay or how to entertain yourself when you get there--unless you're one to feed on mystery, sleep with the stars and thrill to small revelations."
-"Chicago Tribune
..."a fine guide which includes a healthy dose of Native American history along with basic ideas and instructions for locating archaeological sites."
