Beginning with the immigrants from Asia, through inventions of agriculture, cities and kingdoms, American First Nations are integral to the history of the United States. They explored the continent, pioneered its waterways and mountain passes, cleared forests, irrigated deserts, and ranched its great plains.

Invading Europeans justifies their conquests by denying the evidence of American Indian civilisations. Using her familiarity with the archaeological remains and remnants, Alice Kehoe builds a fascinating prehistory, highlighting the research puzzles along the way.

This book presents an enthralling look at the depth and diversity of American history - before the Europeans and the deadly epidemics they brought with them decimated whole nations.

Oxford Handbook of Mexican History
<em>The Oxford Handbook of Mexican History </em>offers an authoritative guide to the last five centuries of Mexico's past and its enduring historical legacies. Thirty-one essays divided into five thematic sections delineate the elements of this history. The handbook's opening essay, written by the volume editor, surveys themes that run through the following chapters while introducing readers to the work of notable historians, their strategies for writing the nation's history, and directions for future research. Leading Mexican, US, and Canadian authors account for historical developments without overly relying on methodological descriptions. Chapters aim to capture the drama of national life, from the years leading up to the Spanish-Aztec War of 1519 until the present day, while providing expert appraisal of the sources and techniques used by historians for narrating the Mexican past
