LeBlanc (archaeology, UCLA) tackles a subject that he admits is not pleasant; but he overcame his initial aversion to the subject when he found abundant evidence conflicting with a romanticized picture of the ancient Pueblo people of the Southwest as peaceful, sedentary corn farmers. He takes a pan-Southwestern view and considers archaeological and ethnohistorical evidence and oral traditions to assemble his detailed, scholarly presentation. Annotation c.
