A History of US First Americans Prehistory-1600
Thousands of years ago- long before Christopher Columbus set sail- wandering tribes of hunters make their way from Asia across the Bering land bridge to North America. They don't know it, but they have discovered a New World. This book tells the story of Native Americans from Alaska to Patagonia. It also tells the story of explorers like Leif Eriksson, Columbus, Cortes and others. |

Quotes
"History is full of stories--true stories--the best ever. Those stories have real heroes and real villains. When you read history, you are reading about real-life adventures." "They invented a dart-thrower: a wooden handle with a hooked tip that worked like a missile launcher. It was called an 'atl-atl.' The hunter would throw the atl-atl as a ballplayer throws a pitch." "No one has ever solved the mystery of the Lost Colony." |
