Indians in American History An Introduction

Booknews

Seeks to bring Native histories and culture more fully into the study of the American past. While not a conventional American Indian history text, it also attempts to provide a useful presentation of subjects and themes central to that history. Essays are arranged chronologically and cover familiar themes of the American Revolution, the Constitution, and the 20th century, from a Native perspective. This second edition features three new chapters on the dynamics of the colonial period, the recent Native past, and challenges faced and leadership demonstrated by American Indian women in the 20th century. Includes b&w photos. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
