Review title: Williams' book riddled with errors
Product review: Hardly informative, hardly original. Most archeologists should be astonished at the number of egregious errors and incorrectly spelled words in this book. Truly shameful, in particular is that Dr. Williams takes as settled the debates on the Vinland map. In 1991 he proclaimed the issue over, yet ignored 1988 studies at UC Berkely and now new information has emerged to authenticate the date of the paper and question the earlier ink studies. Thus, the verdict on Vinland is still open for debate. And that is just one example of at least a dozen that the good Dr. misleads his readership. To put it simply, Williams is just a conservative too afraid to open the field for broader considerations. Fear of controversy gets all of us-- (and it is all of our history, not just that of archeologists)--nowhere.
