In this history of the Southwestern archaeology from the 1890s to the 1920s, James Snead takes us back to frenzied days when relic hunters, eastern "museum men," and western boosters competed for status in the ruins of the American Southwest.
James E. Snead has held research fellowships at the School of American Research, the American Museum of Natural History, and the Clements Center for Southwest Studies at Southern Methodist University. He currently teaches at George Mason University.
