Viac o knihe

This comprehensive history of North Americaâ€s indigenous peoples begins with their first crossing of the Beringia land bridge between 30,000 and 12,000 years ago then profiles the cultures, such as the Mississippian mound-builders and the pueblos of the southwest, that flourished before the arrival of Europeans. Supported by maps and a timeline, it follows their relentless displacement, the survival of their language and customs, and modern campaigns for their rights.
