Sold by Mighty Ape
This volume starts with the earliest years of human colonization of the American continent and environs, as it follows the Siberian migrations across the Bering Strait 15,000 years ago. It ends in the period around 1800 when the rough outline of contemporary North America could be perceived. Dropping the usual Anglocentric description of North America’s fate, Taylor conveys the far more vivid and startling story of the competing interests – Spanish, French, English, Native, Russian – that over the centuries shaped and reshaped both the continent and its “suburbs” in the Caribbean and the Pacific.
