Gunnerson’s revised Master’s thesis. “The Dismal River Aspect is an archeological complex occurring in western Nebraska, western Kansas, eastern Colorado, and southeastern Wyoming…dated at circa 1700 and is now generally attributed to Plains Apache….the subsistence pattern emphasized hunting, but that agriculture was practiced. The sites are semipermanent villages or temporary camps apparently chosen with little concern for defensibility…There is evidence linking the Dismal River people to the Southwest, but thus far their relationship to the Plains seems closer.” (from the Introduction) This publisher–J & L Reprint–does a first-class job with their reprints. RARE in hardcover.
