People Of The Sea
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
As with all of the "North America's Forgotten Past" series, this book is remarkable! We may never be able to repay the wealth of knowledge garnered by many and shared by the Gears in this series. Thanks to the Gears for providing an astonishing glimpse into the past of our great country's true "First Nation Peoples"!
Exciting!!

I've loved everything I've read by the Gears and I've read just about everything they have published. Wonderful interposing of fiction onto the facts! They use their expertise as anthropologists and as story tellers to combine what really has been found about North American Indians and interpose a very believable story onto it. They really make the past come alive! The inclusion of what has really been found by anthropologists adds tremendously to the books!
The Gears are terrific storytellers.

Their storytelling is so superb that I was able to join the characters on their various outer and inner journeys.
Another great story in the series!

Help! I'm hooked! People of the Sea was another one I hated to put down. I love how each book in the series teaches me something new. The story line was excellent and kept me reading into the "wee" hours. On to the next one............
