Description

This highly anticipated revision delivers thoroughly updated coverage of sites and discoveries in a new, streamlined format. While retaining Brian Fagans hallmark, story-telling style, the Fifth Edition provides new features that engage and enlighten. Enduring Theme sections add to the region-by-region organization, helping students make connections across the American continent and among Native American cultures. And because of judicious streamlining, the book is more readable and 25% briefer.
