It's the first in a new series of Gemstone trade paperbacks - pairing Carl Barks' classic Scrooge adventures with Don Rosa's modern-day sequels! This time "Land of the Pygmy Indians" is teamed with its follow-up, "War of the Wendigo!" When Scrooge grows sick of the big city's rumble, his back-to-nature journey takes him to a pueblo untouched by modern times. There he meets the Peeweegah, Native Americans whose traditions haven't changed in a thousand years...and whom he must defend from modernity's encroaching grasp!
