Reviews

I am very happy to see that more of the New Deal-era/Works Progress Administration work that previously had not been published is being brought to publication by a younger generation of archaeologists. This volume will serve as a standard reference work and data source for many years to come. - Lynne P. Sullivan, coauthor of Curating Archaeological Collections: From the Field to the Repository and coeditor of Mississippian Mortuary Practices: Beyond Hierarchy and the Representationist Perspective I commend the authors in unearthing historical documents related to New Deal investigations in Eastern Oklahoma, critically examining those original findings, and contextualizing the WPA investigations with respect to the latest understandings of archaeology in the region. - Bernard K. Means, author of Circular Villages of the Monongahela Tradition and editor of Shovel Ready: Archaeology and Roosevelt's New Deal for America
