Drawing together a century of widely scattered scientific and
technical reports, as well as 25 years of first-hand experience in
the field, Scott Anfinson provides the first comprehensive overview
of the people who inhabited the Prairie Lake Region of the
northwestern Plains before the arrival of European explorers.
Focusing on southwestern Minnesota, north-central Iowa, and
south-eastern South Dakota, the author describes the dramatic
environmental changes that occurred during the precontact
millennia, and the impact on the human, animal, and plant cultures
of the region once treated as the insignificant edge of the Great
Plains and Eastern Woodlands. His synthesis reveals how the
successions of peoples in this transition region selectively
accepted -- and denied -- influences from the better-known cultures
around them. Archaeologists and historians of Native Americans, as
well as amateur and armchair archaeologists, will welcome this
valuable addition to the region's geological, natural and cultural
history.
