| In
early October, a hacker found a way into our Lulu
account and we have had to disable it to prevent further intrusions. As
a result, copies of The
Ancestral
Puebloan Primer and The
Anasazi Guide are
not available from Lulu at this time. Amazon.com says they
still
have copies in stock, BarnesandNoble.com has had a few copies
in the past, and a few copies are available on ebay.com.
We regret the inconvenience and are working to resolve the security issues. In the meantime, we are making the following site and artifact guides are available for free download. If you would like to be notified when things are back to normal, please email us at books@AnasaziAdventure.com. |

While Europe was
locked in the “dark ages,” the Ancestral
Puebloans created a
largely integrated
society that endured for almost a thousand years—nearly five times as
long as
the United States has existed. This volume is an archaeologically based
guide to the principal Ancestral Puebloan sites. It features
concise, up-to-date
information about the Ancestral Puebloans as well as
comprehensive
directions for a Golden Circle tour with stops at Canyon de
Chelly, Mesa Verde, Chaco Canyon, and other major sites while
appendices summarize detailed information about pottery styles, stone
points and the role of warfare in their decision to abandon the four
corners area. Copies of The Anasazi Guide are in stock at Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com. Additional copies will be available from the publisher once security issues are resolved. |
