Journey to historic Native American sites (from Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington) through over 50 full-page color photographs on high-quality gloss paper by Eric Thome, a fine artist. Photographs from the Taos Pueblo in New Mexico (a World Heritage Site continuously occupied for around 1, 000 years) comprise about one-third of the photos in this book. Other photo subjects include petroglyphs and pictographs (from hundreds to thousands of years ago) created by Archaic, Ancestral Puebloan, Fremont, Ute, Shoshone, Northern Paiute and Yokuts people (or their ancestors) and geoglyphs (similar to Peru's famous Nazca Lines) from the Aha Macav (Mojave) or Quechan (Yuma) people. This book also contains photos of cliff dwellings, ancient architecture and ruins from the Ancestral Pueblo and Sinagua cultures, paintings from California Mission Indians (under the direction of a Spanish artist) in the 1821 Mission San Miguel Arcà ngel, the remains of a Ghost Dance circle (from the 1872-73 Modoc War), a Tlingit Totem Pole and more.
