The Great Journey books, by Brian M Fagan First published in 1987, Brian Fagan's classic account of the first population of North America has been reprinted with a new chapter that includes recent archaeological and scientific discoveries as well as controversies. Supported throughout with reconstruction drawings and illustrations of artefacts, places and past archaeologists, the accessible study discusses the evolution of man in Europe and, especially, Siberia and the chronology of the exodus across the Bering Strait. Fagan examines the environment that would have faced the first settlers, the flora and fauna, particularly the bison, and their tools. Finally, Fagan considers the population of the far north, culminating in the spread of the Vikings.
