Reviews
"This handy book is just the thing for the arrowhead and potsherd collector. . . . the strength of the book, originally published in 1986, is its explanation and photographs of the kinds and sorts of arrowheads, spearpoints, and knives. How to manufacture them is also useful for identifying good hunting places or taking up knapping yourself. The photographs and drawings of artifacts are excellent. . . . Overall, if you want to go beach-combing on the prairies, this is the book to have."
"Very helpful for amateurs who truly care about archaeology."
—Daily Sitka Sentinel (Sitka, Alaska)
—Dr. H. M. Wormington, former curator of archaeology of the Denver Art Museum"...offers the serious avocationals a directive for pursuing an interest and at the same time contributing in positive ways to the scientific descriptions of archaeology."
—George C. Frison, Professor Emeritus, University of Wyoming
