Reviews

This carefully crafted, well-researched book frames Theodore White as a pioneering analytical giant in anthropological zooarchaeology and thus fills an enormous gap in the history of the sub-discipline... This remarkable work is mandatory reading for zooarchaeologists and scholars interested in the history of American archaeology. -Matthew Hill, associate professor of anthropology at Iowa State University and the author of Paleoindian Subsistence Dynamics on the Northwestern Great Plains: Zooarchaeology of the Clary Ranch and Agate Basin Sites -- Matthew Hill R. Lee Lyman brings his passion for archaeological history and zooarchaeology as well as detailed command of the details of [Theodore] White's contributions together in this book. Lyman links White's perspectives to contemporary anthropological zooarchaeology with his characteristic alacrity and penchant for detail. -Steve Wolverton, associate professor in archaeology at the University of North Texas and coauthor of Sushi in Cortez: Interdisciplinary Essays on Mesa Verde -- Steve Wolverton
