Review quote
“Author David Hurst Thomas, curator of the American Museum of Natural History in New York, refines the Navajo definiton of Anasazi to “enemy ancestors.” And works hard to tell the story of ancient America “strictly in terms of places and artifacts you can see for yourself.” In other words, in his state-by-state exploration of more than 400 indigenous archaeological sites (all places that you, too can visit), he sems eager to steer clear of the Euro-centric version of American history and enhances his fact-filled reports with perspectives from a host of Native American tribes.” — Pioneer Press, St. Paul, MN, June 20, 1999
