This book is 15-20 years old, and thereby needs to be followed up with updates (also it speaks to the academic problem of not letting indigenous people look at their own artifacts when trying to do research). That being said white supremacists be using way more out of date information than this book. The book is great at dispelling pan-indianism & pan-indigineity while giving highlights, and it offers interesting thoughts on how the older societies could've impacted tensions among white/settler/colonizer societies.
The style guide discussion in the coda is very interesting especially since it records the Overton window of the time
