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.
