If you want to read more about Chaco and the “lost” empire of the Anasazi in the US Southwest, there’s no finer place to start than Stephen Lekson’s book The Chaco Meridian. Lekson is the complete opposite of the dry academic — his books and papers are replete with Monty Python jokes, horrible puns and the like, and he’s quite controversial in his field, and politely merciless to his detractors. You’ll enjoy it.

This is a part of the Chaco Canyon Series published by University of Utah Press by a well respected scholar of the area. This book contributes over 150 maps, diagrams, illustrations, and photographs exemplifying the architectural designs and methods of the many Great Houses.

This is a collection of 20 authors published by the School of American Research. It is considered a landmark book because it details most of the major topics on Chaco and includes maps and illustrations.
