520 |a "While archeological evidence shows the first people in New England inhabited the landscape for more than 12,000 years, newly landed colonists from Europe immediately dismissed Native American spiritual practices as pagan rituals to be destroyed or silenced through Christianization.

This book takes the reader deep into the woods now long abandoned to rediscover the structures they left behind."--  |c Back cover.
