Notes: Very similar to those Time-Life types, monthly editions, all mail-order. Except this is the Smithsonian so there’s more gravity, more scholarship, more detail. Lots of black-and-white and color photos. Excellent basic intro to American (mostly North American, but also some Central and South) prehistoric archaeology.
