In The Hands Of The Great Spirit : The 20,000-year History Of American Indians

  • Attribution

    Jake Page

  • Publication Details

    Book, Free Press, 2003

  • Description

    The story of the American Indians has, until now, been told as a 500-year tragedy, a story of violent and fatal encounters with Europeans and their diseases, followed by steady retreat, defeat, and diminishment. In the Hands of the Great Spirit will forever change the familiar story of recent centuries, replacing it with a far more sweeping and meaningful story of tribes and peoples who have suffered enormously yet endure and enrich the American experience.

The First Americans : In Pursuit Of Archaeology’s Greatest Mystery

  • The First Americans : In Pursuit Of Archaeology's Greatest Mystery

  • Attribution

    J.M. Adovasio with Jake Page

  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st ed, Random House, 2002

  • Description

    Adovasio begins The First Americans by putting his work into historical context, from the earliest European fantasies about where the Native Americans came from to the birth of modern archaeology and the origins of the dogma his own work has debunked. As he writes, ?The work of lifetimes has been put at risk, reputations have been damaged, an astounding amount of silliness and even profound stupidity has been taken as serious thought, and always lurking in the background of all the argumentation and gnashing of tenets has been the question of whether the field of archaeology can ever be pursued as a science.?

  • Tales Of The Earth : Paroxysms And Perturbations Of The Blue Planet

  • Attribution

    Charles Officer & Jake Page

  • Publication Details

    Book, Oxford University Press, 1993

  • Description

    In Tales of the Earth, Charles Officer and Jake Page describe some of the great events of environmental history, from natural catastrophes such as the Tambora eruption, the Lisbon earthquake of 1755 (the greatest in recorded history), and the ice ages, to disasters such as the nuclear fallout from Chernobyl, acid rain, and the progressive depletion of the ozone layer. They examine the depletion of natural resources (we burn coal and oil at millions of times their natural rate of production), air pollution in such major urban areas as Los Angeles and London (where the Killer Smog of 1952 caused the death of some four thousand people), and the pollution of major waterways, like the Chesapeake Bay and Lake Erie.
