Book summary

This groundbreaking work of science, history, and archaeology, radically alters our understanding of the Americas before the arrival of Columbus in 1492. Contrary to what many Americans learn in school, the pre-Columbian Indians were were not sparsely settled in a pristine wilderness. Some were larger than European cities and had running water and streets. A transformative new look at a rich and fascinating world we only thought we knew. [via]
