A books that brings a lost culture and capital to life,
By Longtime editor (Behind the desk) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Apalachee Indians and Mission San Luis (Native Peoples, Cultures, and Places of the Southeastern United States) (Paperback)
The Apalachee Indians and Mission San Luis is one of the most physically attractive books ever produced by an academic press. Its hundreds of photographs, drawings, and panoramic paintings bring to life a long buried Indian town and Spanish colonial regional capital. The authors help establish the importance of the overlooked yet once great chiefdoms of the Southeast and of the abortive but still influential efforts of the Spanish to make those chiefdoms part of their empire. At the same time, the authors vividly reconstruct the daily life of the Indians and Europeans who lived and died at San Luis. Hann and McEwan show commendable sensitivity to the native Apalachee inhabitants in the process. This is a book that can satisfy readers of history, Native American studies, or archeology at several levels.
