Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. This collection presents, for the first time, a much-needed synthesis of the major research themes and findings that characterize the Woodland Period in the southeastern United States.The Woodland Period (ca. 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1000) has been the subject of a great deal of archaeological research over the past 25 years. Researchers have learned that in this approximately 2000-year era the peoples of the Southeast experienced increasing sedentism, population growth, and organizational complexity. At the beginning of the period, people are assumed to have been living in small groups, loosely bound by collective burial rituals. But by the first millennium A.D., some parts of the region had densely packed civic ceremonial centers ruled by hereditary elites. Maize was now the primary food crop. Perhaps most importantly, the ancient animal-focused and hunting-based religion and cosmology were being replaced by solar and warfare iconography, consistent with societies dependent on agriculture, and whose elites were increasingly in competition with one another. This volume synthesizes the research on what happened during this era and how these changes came about while analyzing the period's archaeological record.In gathering the latest research available on the Woodland Period, the editors have included contributions from the full range of specialists working in the field, highlighted major themes, and directed readers to the proper primary sources. Of interest to archaeologists and anthropologists, both professional and amateur, this will be a valuable reference work essential to understanding the Woodland Period in the Southeast. …

Early in the decade of the 1890s, the Santa Fe Railroad gained a reputation for producing the finest of all railroad booklets. That reputation was largely the result of one man's talent and initiative. C[harles] A[lford] Higgins built a career writing exceptional booklets that invited attention and compelled remembrance. In so doing, he differentiated the Santa Fe from the rest of the pack. While his booklets were typical in that they described the region through which his line passed, Higgins alone authored finely crafted narratives, "finely illustrated, without too much railroad talk in them." (Michael E. Zega, "?Advertising the Southwest," Journal of the Southwest, 2001.) Nearly every page bears several gem-like illustrations by John Tinney McCutcheon, a Chicago newspaper artist, who also provided many full-page illustrations depicting scenes along the way, including iconic Native Americans. Front matter includes 2-page advertisement and the last page is a map of the Santa Few route. The first edition of a classic work on early travel by train to California. J.T. McCutcheon [John Tinney] (illustrator).…
