Alice Beck Kehoe

America Before the European Invasions (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Settled for many thousands of years by Native Americans, who had developed extensive, varied and long-lasting cultures across the continent, North America's economic development on the eve of the European invasions was not hugely dissimilar to that of the European settlers themselves. Based on a thorough examination of the archaeological and anthropological evidence, Alice Kehoe's enterprising new volume, tells the complex story of early America and the history of the indigenous peoples who inhabited the continent before the coming of the Europeans. As the only properly integrated textbook on the subject it will provide a valuable resource for students of US history and anthropology.
