Dan Doescher
reviewed Nature and History in the Potomac Country: From Hunter-Gatherers to the Age of Jefferson on November 23, 2013 Nature and History in the Potomac Country
Though lacking at parts, worth four stars for centering a group whose beliefs, problems, and position who are rarely the concentrated subject of study.
Book is also quire uncanny to read in aftermath of 2016 election.
