Product Description
Product Description
The Apaches, Arapahos, Blackfeet, Cherokees, Cheyennes, Choctaws, Comanches and Crows...the Shawnees, Shoshonis, Sioux, Wichitas and Zunis - this comprehensive, compassionate and vivid study provides an unrivalled history of American Indians from the dawn of their first contact with Europeans to the late twentieth century. It is a remarkable record of survival against the odds - the preservation of distinctive cultural identities through centuries of encroachment by a more numerous and aggressive race.
From the Back Cover
Succeeds admirably...pulls together a myriad persons, policies, events and tribes into a bright thread that weaves itself through four-hundred-plus years of history. Here, indeed, is the best one-volume history of the American Indians.' Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science
