About This Item
Berkeley: University of California Press, 1952. First Edition. Octavo. 207 pages, notes, appendix, translation of Spanish documents by Donald C. Cutter. Heizer and Mills have demonstrated here that when archaeology and history are interwoven, we often find a much deeper benefit than to see the subjects within each discipline in a narrow sense. Here they deal with the early (perhaps primitive) approaches to the materials and then integrates the descriptions of Hezeta, Bodega y Quadra, and Vancouver to great benefit. What began as a small study shows a much wider view of west Indians. Bound in light brown cloth lettered in red, spine lettering red. A very good copy which leans just a bit in unclipped pictorial dust jacket with a bit of wear along the upper edge.
