Native American Testimony: A Chronicle of Indian-White Relations from Prophecy to the Present, 1942-2000 (rev Edition) Editorial Review:
An updated edition of this classic collection of more than 500 years of Native American history
Revised to bring this important chronicle to the end of the millennium, anthropologist Peter Nabokov presents a history of Native American and white relations as seen though Indian eyes and told through Indian voices. Beginning with the Indians' first encounters with European explorers, traders, missionaries, settlers, and soldiers to the challenges confronting Native American culture today, Native American Testimony is a series of powerful and moving documents spanning five hundred years of interchange between the two peoples. Drawing from a wide range of sources--traditional narratives, Indian autobiographies, government transcripts, firsthand interviews, and more--Nabokov has assembled a remarkably rich and vivid collection, representing nothing less than an alternate history of North America.
* Updated with new material on Native Americans facing the twenty-first century
"A strong and moving reminder of a lost dimension in American history." --Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.Customer Reviews:
Native American Testimony: A Chronicle of Indian-White Relations from Prophecy to the Present, 1942-2000 (rev Edition)
I was actually recommended the Dutch version of the book, but I prefered to have the original English version. I started reading this book and it is so exciting to learn about the (hi)story of the Native Americans which are to be considered as the real roots of the United States of America. Certainly an enrichment of my library. Native American Testimony
This book is a great collection of primary source documents about the Native American experience in America through the development of the country. Very useful for American literature and American history courses and anyone interested in the Native American voice in US History. A perspective from the Native American Indian's perspective
I bought this book to help me learn about my family's history as a Native American Indian. I was always concerned that the Native American Indians had a unfair portrayal in American History. This book I think is a valuable literary piece. It breaks events down in historical order. They are easy to read. Once I finished with I felt I had read the Native Indian's perspective which is amiss in the Northeast school teachings of history. There were some interesting stories that were accounted as well. Naative American Testimony: Chronicle Indian White Relations
Testimonies from all different tribes of Native Americans which are grouped by subject in part and chronically in part. Very informative primary sources. Wonderful for research. Native American Testimony: Chronicle Indian White Relations from Prophecy Present 1942 2000 (rev Edition)
Nabokov's book is a fantastic compilation of Native American history as remembered and documented by the First People of America. I bought this book for a class that I am taking and will definitely keep this in my library as a valued treasure. It's easy to read and is in somewhat of a chronological order Related Categories:
