The entire course of native American history is traced in this book, from the first appearance of humans in the New World, more than 14,000 years ago, to the cataclysmic aftermath of European settlement. This text has been completely revised and expanded. It includes an updated account of controversies over first settlement, and new material on the eastern Plains farmers, the rock paintings of the Pecos areas and the archaeology of the Northwest Plateau. Canadian cultures and archaelogical sites receive additional attention, and current theoretical issues are debated, guiding the reader through a rapidly changing field. Fagan is the author of "The Great Journey", "The Journey from Eden" and "Kingdoms of Gold, Kingdoms of Jade".

Haven't finished yet but it is the most informative textbook I have found in years that fully explains all aspects of each tribe and area. Coverage is detailed, easily understood, and enlightening. After researching Native America for the past 30 years for pleasure, I am extremely pleased. Photos, diagrams, maps, and others have really helped me understand the time frame much better. Would highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to discover how the Americas were populated and the growth and extinction of such a variety of cultures located all together in this one area.
