Highway Speed
Highway Speed, the unforgettable debut collection of short stories by Stephen Roger Powers, is a zero-to-sixty road trip through the loneliness of characters who are driving blind and forever mapping a route home.

American Beginnings brings together for the first time in one volume the most up-to-date archaeological and palaeoecological evidence on Beringia from both Russia and America. "An invaluable resource. . . . It will no doubt remain the key reference book for Beringia for many years to come."—Steven Mithen, Journal of Human Evolutio...
