Description:

This is not a conventional textbook. It contains chronologically arranged essays by thirteen authors who speak from a variety of disciplines and perspectives. The chapters can be read together or in conjunction with a survey text. They are intended to provide an introduction to the Indian side of the usual narrative. The topics will be familiar to most readers -- the Revolution, the Constitution, the Twentieth Century -- but the content will probably be new. It will provide an opening lesson in the breadth and complexity of American Indian history.
