"Finally! A North American archaeology text that not only provides a solid culture history, but also puts North American archaeology into a social and political context that students can understand and use. The CD will be extremely helpful, the sidebars are thought-provoking, and the illustrations are of high quality and fit the text well."--Larry J. Zimmerman, IIndiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis/I"In the end, there is one key question to ask about any textbook: Would I use this in my class? My answer is yes. I would consider adopting it for next year. It provides good coverage of the archaeological record of North America, there is plenty of additional material for students to read, and the maps and illustrations are excellent. Anyone teaching North American archaeology will want to take a serious look at Seeking Our Past."--from the review by Peter N.
