Illustrated Atlas of Native American History
Featuring more than 70 newly created and period maps in full color, this indispensable reference traces the movement of North America's native peoples from 20,000 BC to the present day. Text by special contributors explains how this vast continent, once inhabited solely by native nations in an abundant environment, gradually lost both natural resources and sacred homelands to the ever-growing incursions of Europeans. Lifeways, skills, art, technology, war, and diplomacy are just some of the issues explored through the changing times in ten geographically and culturally disparate regions: the Arctic, Subarctic, Northeast, Southeast, Plains, Southwest, Great Basin, Plateau, California, and the Pacific Northwest.
This hardcover book is in good condition with moderate imperfections to the dust jacket. The pages are in very good condition.
