This "flowing, lucid, and satisfying...story of Indian nations" (The Washington Post) traces the history of North American Indigenous peoples from the Pleistocene era to the present--a must-read for anyone wishing to gain a broader perspective on not only Native American history, but United States history in general.

Today, some two million American Indians inhabit the United States, less than one percent of the nation's population. Their origins have always been viewed from a 500-year-old perspective--from the point of view of the Europeans who "discovered" the New World. Yet the true story of the American Indians begins some seventeen thousand years ago--and it is past due for a telling that shows Indians as they are, rather than as westerners wish them to be.

Recent archaeological findings, newly discovered written accounts, and never-before-published records have contributed to a whole new understanding of our country's oldest ancestors. Drawing upon the latest research, as well as his own personal experience living among the Hopi tribes, acclaimed author and former Natural History magazine editor Jake Page covers all aspects of Indian life throughout the ages. From the Pleistocene era to Custer's Last Stand, the Trail of Tears to the Indian Civil Rights Act, the establishment of reservations to the negotiation of casino property, In the Hands of the Great Spirit reveals the astonishing endurance of a group of people whose experience is as varied as the world is old.

Cheap for a reason
Color: Black, Size: 6 Tier(13 inches)
Missing a support bar so I have to return it. The provided hardware is very soft so good thing I dont plan on taking it apart because the allen bolts would not survive. Good idea but not the best quality.

Easy to Maintain & Highly Versatile
Color: Black, Size: 6 Tier(13 inches)
Literally so convenient. Okay first off easy to install / setup, just a little time consuming is all. But it holds soooooo much, each basket is a different category. I have this in my bathroom closet to hold all my toiletries, perfumes, and other things. Everything is so organized now & not just thrown into a drawer. Before I used this as my closet I used this as something to store my hobbies but I decided to just put those in my closet in boxes. So you can basically use this as anything, ooh I would also use this to store plants, the wheels lock in place when you don’t need them and they unlock when you want to roll it, so you can place it anywhere & move it any time you want. Very versatile. The bins pull out but they don’t pull out all the way. The bins have holes so it’s breathable as well for anything you store. This is actually very high quality & it’s actually easy to wipe down (considering that it’s plastic). 10/10 would buy again!

Perfect for tight spaces and surprisingly sturdy!
Color: White, Size: 6 Tier(13 inches)
I am beyond impressed with this 6-tier storage cart. I was looking for something to maximize the vertical space in a very narrow gap, and this fits like it was custom-made. What I love: Quality & Durability: The carbon steel frame feels very stable, and the safety stops on the drawers are a game-changer—you don’t have to worry about the baskets falling out when you pull them. Design & Aesthetics: The wood top gives it a premium look that blends nicely with my decor, unlike all-plastic utility carts. The white finish is clean and bright. Ease of Use: Assembly was straightforward, and it rolls smoothly even when fully loaded. I also appreciate the 6 side hooks for hanging smaller items. Versatility: The drainage holes in the baskets make it great for the bathroom or laundry room, but it’s cute enough for a craft room or kitchen too. If you have a small space that needs serious organization, this is definitely worth the investment. It’s functional, high-quality, and looks great!

A great product!
Color: Black, Size: 6 Tier(8 inches), Color: Black, Size: 6 Tier(8 inches)
This storage cart really maximizes the space going up. This rolling cart is taller than me; I have 8-foot-tall doors, and you can see from my picture how tall this is. It is lightweight, rolls smoothly, is easy to assemble, and is a great value. You can place heavier or taller shampoo bottles on the shelves; they are pretty steady and not loose. The way this is built, the shelves are sturdy (they have 2 metal poles underneath giving them support). They also don't slide all the way out, so you don't have to worry about pulling it out too far and having things fall. This is a really great product, and I plan to use it in my master bathroom for all the extra stuff we have.
