Discover all about the everyday lives of early American peoples by investigating in turn the lost civilizations of the Aztec, Maya and Inca peoples of Central and South America, and the enduring Arctic and Native American Indian cultures of the North. Page by page, the story of each civilization unfolds to give an insight into the beliefs, traditions, crafts and survival skills of the past. By exploring all the key cultures in one volume, the different ways in which each evolved can be compared. Historical photographs and illustrations aim to evoke the atmosphere and realities of everyday life in the past, while maps and timelines set the information in place and time. Model-making projects, such as building an igloo, add extra dimension.
