Paul R. and Millie F. Cheesman present a two-part study of ancient American peoples. Part One is a travelogue-style tour of North American archaeological sites—mounds, pueblos, and museums—organized by region and tribe. Part Two argues that American Indian origins involve multiple transoceanic migrations, cataloging hundreds of cultural parallels between the Old and New Worlds: pyramids, baptism, tree-of-life symbols, writing on metal, and more. Written from an LDS perspective sympathetic to Book of Mormon claims, it invites readers to view Native Americans with admiration and respect.

  • A visual case for Old World–New World connections with 50+ side-by-side photo comparisons
  • An armchair travel guide to accessible ancient ruins across 35+ states
  • Sympathetic treatment of controversial inscribed stones mainstream scholars dismiss
  • Ties archaeological parallels directly to Book of Mormon migration claims

Perfect for an LDS adult curious about archaeological and cultural evidence connecting ancient America to the Old World and the Book of Mormon.
