The Invisible Sex: Uncovering the True Roles of Women in Prehistory
Shaped by cartoons and museum dioramas, our vision of Paleolithic times tends to feature fur-clad male hunters fearlessly attacking mammoths while timid women hover fearfully behind a boulder. Recent archaeological research has shown that this vision bears little relation to reality. J. M. Adovasio and Olga Soffer, two of the world's leading experts on perishable artifacts such as basketry, cordage, and weaving, present an exciting new look at pr…
Fool’s Gold, Hooch, and Mutiny
This chapter describes the voyages of Martin Frobisher to the Arctic, and his search for the rock that produces essence of gold. Frobisher was the first Englishman to seek the Northwest Passage. Together with Michael Lok, Frobisher set sail to the Northwest Passage using the bark: Gabriel and Michael. They landed on a shore of North America, where they encountered Inuits, and gathered loot, one of which was a piece of black rock. This chapter fur…
Sea Lungs, Godly Commerce, and Projections
A Fabulous Kingdom: The Exploration of the Arctic
Inconstant and forbidding, the arctic has lured misguided voyagers into the cold for centuries—pushing them beyond the limits of their knowledge, technology, and endurance. The book charts these quests and the eventual race for the North Pole, chronicling the lives and adventures that would eventually throw light on this “magical realm” of sunless winters. The book follows the explorers from the early journeys of Viking Ottar to the daring exploi…
When The Planet Rages: Natural Disasters, Global Warming, and the Future of the Earth
In New England, 1816 was called the Year Without a Summer. Crops failed throughout America and, in Western Europe, it was even worse, with food riots and armed groups raiding bakeries and grain markets. All this turmoil followed a catastrophic volcanic eruption--a year earlier on the other side of the world--the eruption of Tambora, a blast heard almost a thousand miles away. In When the Planet Rages, Charles Officer and Jake Page describe some o…

The Mythology of Native North America
David Leeming and Jake Page have provided an introduction and commentary on seventy-two myths drawn from a variety of cultures and language groups. They honor the Native pantheons, cosmologies, heroes, and heroines first as cultural expressions, then as variations on other mythic narratives to which they may be related, and ultimately as expressions of the larger human experience of myth making. In the process Leeming and Page reveal much of the …
