Welcome to Litsy!

Modern explorers do exist, especially in Canada's vast and unforgiving wilderness. We follow Shoalts as he seeks out an uncharted waterway. I've seen reviews complaining that the author comes off as vain and egotistical, but I didn't really get that from the audio. I think every explorer in history has to be vain to some degree, to even attempt their exploits. I do wish I had read a physical copy tho, as I assume it would include photos & maps.

Loaded with several humorous visual details, a fantastic #gazingbook. A definite reread for details.

“This movement, or migration, of people continued very slowly over thousands of years. New groups moved across from Asia, and earlier arrivals moved farther into the new land. Gradually people spread throughout what are now Canada, the United States, Mexico, Central and South America.“

This book features lots of maps to help visualize the journeys taken to the Americas.

A history of the Americas, starting with ancient people coming over from the land bridge. I like that this book starts and values the people who were here first (Indigenous peoples).
