REVIEWS
“There is no question that Nancy White is the right person to synthesize the archaeology of the Apalachicola-Lower Chattahoochee river valley region. She has spent her entire career. . . surveying and excavating the region’s many archaeological sites. She and her students are really the only ones who have devoted significant time and effort into understanding the area’s past. . .”
