Description
This volume details the relationship of fire and the land in the United States, and the use of fire by Native Americans to alter the landscape, as well as taking advantage of naturally occurring fires. Native Americans regularly used fire to manage plant communities and associated animal species through varied and localized habitat burning dispelling the common myth that views Native Americans as naive, primitive people who had little impact on the landscape.
