| Synopsis: |
This book follows contemporary archaeologists in five cases of discovery that have reinterpreted history: the excavation of the French explorer La Salle's ship Belle off the coast of Texas; the reconstruction of life in the Jamestown settlement through its original fort; the battle of the Little Bighorn, where Sioux accounts were at odds with the US Army explanation; the excavation of the slave quarters in Jefferson's Monticello; and the diggings in the Foley Courthouse Square, a New York City immigrant neighbourhood over 150 years ago. What the archaeologists made of what they found in the dirt will give kids a fresh and fun way to understand the importance of history. (Ages 11 and over). |
