The Native Peoples of North America | Martyn J. Whittock, John D. Clare

This title is an essential and unique Key Stage 3 resource for teaching and learning about the factors that characterise the history and rich cultural diversity of different North American tribes. It never lets go of the period's story, providing innovative and exciting opportunities to examine the Big Picture and Investigate particular topics.
