This collection presents, for the first time, a much-needed synthesis of the major research themes and findings that characterize the Woodland Period in the southeastern United States.The Woodland Period (ca. 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1000) has been the subject of a great deal of archaeological research over the past 25 years. Researchers have learned that in this approximately 2000-year era the peoples of the Southeast experienced increasing sedentism, population growth, and organizational complexity. At the beginning of the period, people are assumed to have been living in small groups, loosely bound by collective burial rituals. But by the first millennium A.D., some parts of the region had densely packed civic ceremonial centers ruled by hereditary elites. Maize was now the primary food crop. Perhaps most importantly, the ancient animal-focused and hunting-based religion and cosmology were being replaced by solar and warfare iconography, consistent with societies dependent on agriculture, and whose elites were increasingly in competition with one another. This volume synthesizes the research on what happened during this era and how these changes came about while analyzing the period's archaeological record.In gathering the latest research available on the Woodland Period, the editors have included contributions from the full range of specialists working in the field, highlighted major themes, and directed readers to the proper primary sources. Of interest to archaeologists and anthropologists, both professional and amateur, this will be a valuable reference work essential to understanding the Woodland Period in the Southeast.…

A vintage March 1, 2001 gift inscription is neatly scripted on the blank first free front endpaper. "In A Charge to Keep, George W. Bush offers readers a warm, insightful, and honest look at the personal and political experiences that have shaped his values and led to his decision to become a candidate for President. The Texas Governor takes readers on his life's journey, including his childhood in West Texas, the encounter with Billy Graham that reawakened his faith, his years in the oil business and as owner of a baseball team, and his decision to run for Governor. The George W. Bush who leaps off these pages has his mother's wit and down-to-earth personality, his father's energy and competitive drive, and his own unique style and philosophy. He talks of the small-town values that shaped him and the schools back east that educated him. He describes selling sporting goods at Sears and working for an inner-city poverty program, which helped develop his passion to "leave no child behind." He describes his love for his wife and twin daughters, and his close relationship with his famous parents. And he discusses difficult decisions, including the death penalty case of Karla Faye Tucker, and outlines his leadership and decision-making styles. A Charge to Keep offers unique insight into the way he governs and how he has worked successfully with Republicans and Democrats in Texas to enact the state's two largest tax cuts and sweeping reforms in education, welfare programs, and criminal justice. A Charge to Keep is a revealing look at the personal stories and public life of one of America's most intriguing political leaaders. It helps explain his record-high approval ratings in his home state of Texas and outlines the compassionate conservative philosophy that is reshaping the political landscape in America. Written with his longtime communications director, Karen Hughes, George W. Bush's A Charge to Keep is a revealing look at the background, philosophy, family, and heart of a man who could be America's next president." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
