The 1996 discovery, near Kennewick, Washington, of a 9,000-year-old Caucasoid skeleton brought more to the surface than bones. The explosive controversy and resulting lawsuit also raised a far more fundamental question: Who owns history? Many Indians see archeologists as desecrators of tribal rites and traditions; archeologists see their livelihoods and science threatened by the 1990 Federal reparation law, which gives tribes control over remains in their traditional territories. In this new work, Thomas charts the riveting story of this lawsuit, the archeologists' deteriorating relations with American Indians, and the rise of scientific archeology. His telling of the tale gains extra credence from his own reputation as a leader in building cooperation between the two sides.

“A sweeping epic.… Promises to do for the war in the Pacific what Rick Atkinson did for Europe.” —James M. Scott, author of Rampage In 1937, the swath of the globe east from India to the Pacific Ocean encompassed half the world’s population. Japan’s onslaught into China that year unleashed a tidal wave of events that fundamentally transformed this region and killed about twenty-five million people. This extraordinary World War II narrative vividly portrays the battles across this entire region and links those struggles on many levels with their profound twenty-first-century legacies. In this first volume of a trilogy, award-winning historian Richard B. Frank draws on rich archival research and recently discovered documentary evidence to tell an epic story that gave birth to the world we live in now.

In the desert lands of Hakanna, a god visits a lich king. This lich is granted the ability to forge a massive army of undead. Not long after the first cities fall to the lich king's army does the word of this evil spread to the northern continent of Relkin. Here a band of adventurers led by a battle cleric named Bolin decides to recruit an army of Relkin soldiers, adventurers, and would be heroes. Bolin and his friends lead their army on ship to Hakanna's lands, but not before they run into trouble of their own. When reaching Hakanna's shores they discover the war is as bad as their informants have told them. The war has brought out just about every creature both evil and good out of their homes to fight. If the lich king's forces should triumph, the entire world is in jeopardy of becoming undead. There are some surprises along the way, and before it is over, planes of light and dark will be unleashed upon Akris.

In 1963, a human skull was discovered in a pub in Kent in south-east England. A brief handwritten note stuck inside the cavity revealed it to be that of Alum Bheg, an Indian soldier in British service who was executed during the aftermath of the 1857 Uprising, or The Indian Mutiny as historians of an earlier era described it. Alum Bheg was blown from a cannon for having allegedly murdered British civilians, and his head was brought back as a grisly war-trophy by an Irish officer present at his execution. The skull is a troublesome relic of both anti- colonial violence and the brutality and spectacle of British retribution. Kim Wagner presents an intimate and vivid account of life and death in British India in the throes of the largest rebellion of the nineteenth century. Fugitive rebels spent months, even years, hiding in the vastness of the Himalayas before they were eventually hunted down and punished by a vengeful colonial state. Examining the colonial practice of collecting and exhibiting human remains, this book offers a critical assessment of British imperialism that speaks to contemporary debates about the legacies of Empire and the myth of the 'Mutiny'.

Many anthropological accounts of warfare in indigenous societies have described the taking of heads or other body parts as trophies. But almost nothing is known of the prevalence of trophy-taking of this sort in the armed forces of contemporary nation-states. This book is a history of this type of misconduct among military personnel over the past two centuries, exploring its close connections with colonialism, scientific collecting and concepts of race, and how it is a model for violent power relationships between groups.

From the author of Idiopathic Condition Red, The Horizontal Split, Scattered Remains, and The Pariah, comes cutting edge dark fantasy and social horror in a style rarely seen. Skull Wars is a frame story about a Croydon alcoholic's slide into criminality and madness when a girlfriend is murdered, drinking acquaintances turn nasty, and the police become increasingly inquisitive. Complacent, confused and usually drunk, Chris Anderson flees to Tunisia and more trouble before arriving in Holland where civil insurrection forces a change of plan that confirms nothing is as it seems. Isolated, menaced and denied medical treatment, Chris plunges further into psychosis accompanied by a book called The Synagogue Cyclorama Desk, and a variety of disturbed individuals who illustrate what can happen when life's sharp edges rub constantly against the open wounds of past traumas.
