Thanks, Dutch. I will keep that in mind. You prompted me to order this following book from the talking book library, which is available to everyone in text form, of course. It sounds like it would be really good, too. "THE DAY BEFORE AMERICA," by William H. MacLeish. 1995, Richard Todd books. (blurb) "ANNOTATION:  The author examines the way animal life and the environment have changed during the past 18,000 years of North American history. Using the research of archaeologists, paleobiologists, anthropologists, and geologists, MacLeish addresses the human impact on this world, especially in the areas of ecology, population growth, and culture."
