Blurb: “Madison Yazoo Leake, of the bombed-out, radiation-ridden 21st century, wanted to go back in time to stop World War Ill before it began. When he stepped through the time portal, he thought he was entering 1930s-era Louisiana. Instead, he found himself in a world where Arabs had explored America, Christianity and the Roman Empire had never existed, and Aztecs performed human sacrifices near the Mississippi as woolly mammoths roamed nearby...

"Them Bones combines time travel, ethnog-raphy, archaeological research, and vivid alternative history in a complex but plainly told narrative that is simultaneously funny and poignant. A happy addition to the distinguished line of Ace Science Fiction Specials."
