For thirty years, the University of Arizona Archaeological Field School at Grasshopper—a 500-room Mogollon pueblo located on what is today the Fort Apache Indian Reservation in Arizona—probed the past, taught scholars of international repute, and generated controversy. This book offers an extraordinary window into a changing American archaeology and three different research programs as they confronted the same pueblo ruin.Like the enigmatic Mogollon culture it sought to explore and earlier University of Arizona field schools in the Forestdale Valley and at Point of Pines, Grasshopper research engendered decades of controversy that still lingers in the pages of professional journals. Jefferson Reid and Stephanie Whittlesey, players in the controversy who are intimately familiar with the field school that ended in 1992, offer a historical account of this major archaeological project and the intellectual debates it fostered.Thirty Years Into Yesterday charts the development of the Grasshopper program under three directors and through three periods dominated by distinct archaeological paradigms: culture history, processual archaeology, and behavioral archaeology. It examines the contributions made each season, the concepts and methods each paradigm used, and the successes and failures of each. The book transcends interests of southwestern archaeologists in demonstrating how the three archaeological paradigms reinterpreted Grasshopper, illustrating larger shifts in American archaeology as a whole. Such an opportunity will not come again, as funding constraints, ethical concerns, and other issues no doubt will preclude repeating the Grasshopper experience in our lifetimes.Ultimately, Thirty Years Into Yesterday continues the telling of the Grasshopper story that was begun in the authors’ previous books. In telling the story of the archaeologists who recovered the material residue of past Mogollon lives and the place of the Western Apache people in their interpretations, Thirty Years Into Yesterday brings the story full circle to a stunning conclusion.

Review “This book will meet the needs of both Southwestern enthusiasts and more serious students of archaeology historiography.”—Journal of the West “This book should be required reading for any archaeologist contemplating a multiyear excavation at any kind of site.”—IA: Journal of the Society for Industrial Archaeology “For general readers this discussion may be intricate but worthwhile, and professionals will appreciate the through documentation, insistent evidence, and provocative allusions.”—Journal of Arizona History

A case study of a complex archaeological field school By Midwest Book Review Co-written by the director of the University of Arizona Archaeological Field School at Grasshopper from 1979 to 1992, Thirty Years Into Yesterday: A History Of Archaeology At Grasshopper Pueblo is a historical account of that major archaeological project, and its field educational service which lasted for thirty years. The field school and also generated significant controversy even as it instructed scholars of international repute. Chapters break down major events in the field school's operation, and changes; a handful of black-and-white photographs, maps, and diagrams illustrate this thoughtful retrospective, and a detailed timeline of events allows for a unique at-a-glance perspective. Thirty Years Into Yesterday is a welcome and informative contribution to Arizona archaeology and history collections, as well as a fascinating case study of a complex archaeological field school and the intellectual debates it stimulated in the scientific community.

A good, thorough Review of the U of A Summer Program at Grasshopper Pueblo By Chavez Pass Alumnus While I am not an archeologist, I did participate in the ASU Chavez Pass field schoolin the summer of 1982.Over the years I have kept up my interest in the area, and this book represents a valuable contribution to myreading on the subject of the Mogollon/Salado people and how they survived in an environment that was very similar to the one we see in central and northern Arizona today.This book is an excellent follow-up to "Grasshopper Pueblo" by Reid and Whittlesey, with more detail about each season's accomplishments and findings. As such it can be a little dry, but this is simply a function of the material.I only wish that there was such a depth of non-strictly academic published material on Chavez Pass, but alas, many of Chavez Pass's secrets will slumber on into oblivion.Obviously, the main shocker for someone like me, who had a brief experience of the place and personalities, was the extent to which a basically puerile ASU/UA rivalry played itself out in the academic sphere.Dr. Fred Plog is no longer here to defend himself, but I would love it one of his cohort (Gary?) would write a book similar toWhittlesey's explaining the significance of the research done at Chavez Pass. I think this could be done in such a way as not to endanger the site. Additionally, we could learn more about Dr. Plog's odd criticism of the UA field school, and the strange rivalry that developed, like archeological football teams fielding hail mary theories (Lateral Cycling at Chavez, roles of 'elites', etc etc).In the final analysis I think that all interested parties will agree that a great deal of very high quality research has been done at both field schools, and the phase of digging and removing has ended. The new phase is of understanding what has been done and protecting these special places from further damage, as they are the unique patrimony of Native American people.Maybe our archeologists and anthropologists could even turn their gaze toward our own culture, and publish research that will increase our understanding of our own social structure and how our own elites operate to maintain control.
