Thousands of years--way before Christopher Columbus set sail--wanderingtribes of hunters made their way from Asia across the Bering land bridge toNorth America. They didn't know it, but they had discovered a New World. TheFirst Americans is a fascinating re-creation of pre-Columbian Native Americanlife, and it's an adventure of a lifetime! Hunt seals with the Inuit; harvestcorn on a cliff-top mesa; hunt the mighty buffalo; and set sail with LeifErickson, Columbus, and all the early great explorers--Cabot, Balboa, Ponce deLeon, Cortes, Henry the Navigator, and more--in this brilliantly told story ofAmerica before it was America.
