Alfred Oscar Coffin was a professor of mathematics and Romance language, best known for being the first African American to obtain a PhD in biology. In this book, he turns his attention to the "Mound Builders," used to refer to characteristic mound earthworks erected for an extended period of more than 5,000 years. The "Mound Builder" cultures span the period of roughly 3500 BCE (the construction of Watson Brake) to the 16th century CE, including the Archaic period, Woodland period (Calusa culture, Adena and Hopewell cultures), and Mississippian period. Geographically, the cultures were present in the region of the Great Lakes, the Ohio River Valley, and the Mississippi River valley and its tributary waters.

As stated in the title, this book is primarily intended to guide the readers into understanding a famous prehistoric archaeological site called the Great Serpent Mound, located in Ohio, United States. The Great Serpent Mound is a 1,348-foot-long (411 m), three-foot-high prehistoric effigy mound. It is named that way because when seen from an aerial view, the effigy mounds are shaped like a large snake.

Hailed by Bruce D. Smith, Curator of North American Archaeology at the Smithsonian Institution, as without question the best available book on the pre-Columbian Indian societies of eastern North America, this wide-ranging and copiously illustrated volume covers the entire sweep of Eastern Woodlands prehistory, with an emphasis on how these societies developed from hunter-gatherers to village farmers and town-dwellers.
