Up until very recently it was believed that in 1491, the year
before Columbus landed, the Americas, one-third of the earth's
surface, were a near-pristine wilderness inhabited by small roaming
bands of indigenous people. But recently unexpected discoveries
have dramatically changed our understanding of Indian life. Many
scholars now argue that the Indians were much more numerous, were
in the Americas for far longer and had far more ecological impact
on the land than previously believed.This knowledge has enormous
implications for today's environmental disputes, yet little has
filtered into textbooks and even less into public awareness. Mann
brings together all of the latest research, and the results of his
own travels throughout North and South America, to provide a new,
fascinating and iconoclastic account of the Americas before
Columbus.
