Ten thousand years ago, all men were hunters. The Hunting Peoples is the story of how early peoples hunted and fished to obtain food, clothing, and often shelter. From the Andamanese living on the shores of the Indian Ocean tot he Penobscots of North America, hunting peoples devised and astonishing variety of methods for the pursuit of game. Carleton Coon's examination of their ingenuity and skills makes for fascinating reading in this classic work, The Hunting Peoples. Accompanying the text are the excellent illustrations of Aldren Watson, which show in superb detail many of the hunting and fishing tools and techniques. This distinguished anthropological account, gracefully told, will fascinate both general readers and outdoorsmen alike.
