The Newport Tower:
NEARA’s editors feel
the time is right to compile the
efforts of our many contributors in a single volume.
We hope that readers who have
followed the twists and turns of Tower research will revisit the
information contained herein, and that those who
are new to the subject will find the
subject matter intriguing and a catalyst for more reading and study. We
have, in some cases, edited the authors' original articles in
order to avoid redundancy.

Beothuk Origins:
"We know that the original Redskins were the Beothuk Indians of
Newfoundland, who painted themselves gaudily with red ochre, but their
story of their unique culture and sad demise has remained obscure.
Dr. John Cooper has taken a big step towards filling this gap in our
knowledge by summarizing the results of his lifelong studies of these
enigmatic people." - J. L. Guthrie
