  • Review: “America B.C.”, By Barry Fell
    To begin with, I realize this series of books I am reading makes paid scientists like archaeologists and historians crazy. It just doesn’t fit in their books. But, as I have said, like politics realizing the power of podcasts and amateurs, novice people are picking up the pieces. This is the era of the citizen-journalist. […]
  • Review: Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, by Dee Brown
    I know I am coming to this book late, but felt it necessary to read this (and others) from the native standpoint since I am also reading many books that seem to be about colonization.

Indeed, the author of “Continental Reckoning”, Elliot West, is a Professor of History Emeritus at the University of Arkansas. This book should be in an Economic or Law history class, and probably is. Author Elliot West clearly outlines […]
