Description

From Publishers Weekly: Loaded with photos and maps, this compact volume presents an elementary survey of diverse native cultures extant in what are now the United States and Canada before the invasion of the Europeans. Bancroft-Hunt's ( People of the Totem ) terse, clearly written text shows how various tribes--Apache, Eskimo, Iroquois--were shaped by the lands on which they lived. The book is helpfully organized into geographical regions--desert dwellers, buffalo hunters of the plains. But the selling point here is the often stunning color photography of artifacts. Less distinguished is the selection of historical black & white photos. Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc.
