The textbook for my Archaeology Independent Study course. Found a lot of it to be a bit dry for my tastes, but perhaps this just means that Archaeology is not my thing & doesn't reflect on the book itself.

Some of the photos & case studies were interesting, and it definitely tied in some Canadian aspects.
