Title: Exciting start, then dragged next 100 pages, I stopped
Review: I got past 100 pages, but found myself laboring through each page. The book started off great. I thought I was going to get a feel for how "Kennewick Man" lived. Instead it talked mostly about this group wanted the bones, that lawyer said that, that law was such-and-such, etc.. I fatigued of the use of the word "intent". The author should count how many times the word "intent" was used in the first 100 pages. It's a lot. It will give you an idea of how focused the book appears to be on the law relating to the handling of such archaeological finds.I was looking for a good insight into how Kennewick Man lived, not how the NAGPRA laws (relating to Native American archaeological finds) work. I would probably not recommend this book.
