A very dry listing of the various aspects of indians in different areas of North America. It could almost be a large chart comparing the similarities of the indian practices, etc. So far (four chapters) it turns out that the indian's anthropology practices are more alike than different.
This textbook is a good book. I have read it from cover to cover and I was surprised to learn a few things. Sutton was very thorough in his explanations of the Native American cultures.
This book is well organized and gives an overview of various Native American cultures, region by region.
It will serve its purpose. No missing pages and nothing too damaged. Thank you.
Worked for my Winter session class. Good Info!!
As described, and arrived on time.
This book was in good enough of condition to get me through the semester. Not much written in it and no pages ripped out. It was okay!
I learn a few thing from this book, however, overall, I am glad it was a rental and not to own.
