The Backwoods of Everywhere

•Author's first book, Behind the Bears Ears, won the ForeWord INDIES Editor's Choice Prize in Nonfiction.

•Backwoods of Everywhere blends the intensely personal—like the author's battle with neurological Lyme disease—with research in archaeology, natural science, and ecology. Burrillo has a knack for rendering technical information into something fun to read and easy to understand.

•Burrillo's examination of American archaeology's colonialist nature engages a growing interest in national parks, conservation, and Indigenous ties to the land.

•Regional appeal in the Southwest.
