Atlas of the North American IndianWaldman, Carl
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"The title is important. Josephy, a respected scholar of Native American history, refuses to homogenize the diverse nations and cultures that once fell into the misleading catch-all category of Indians....a handsome and richly illustrated volume, containing over four hundred archive-quality color reproductions of artifacts, paintings, prints and photographs. There is even a fascinating series of computer-generated images that re-create various native villages and towns as they might have appeared before contact with Europeans."
Scott Manning Stevens, Boston Book Review, June/July 1995

500 Nations: An Illustrated History of North American Indians (ISBN: 0517163942 / 0-517-16394-2) Josephy, Alvin M. Quantity Available: 2
Book Description: Gramercy, 2002. Hardcover. Book Condition: New. Brand new. Clean, unmarked pages. Good binding and cover. Hardcover and dust jacket.This stunningly illustrated companion to a forthcoming CBS television series (produced by Kevin Costner, James Wilson and Jack Leustig) stands on its own as a stirring introduction to hundreds of distinct Native American nations that once blanketed the North American continent. Largely a story of conquest, displacement, betrayal, genocide and forced assimilation, the book wondrously fuses an eloquent text and more than 450 illustrations, most in color, to convey a sense of each tribe's culture, social structure and struggle to survive in the face of white settlers' encroachments. Distinguished historian Josephy (The Patriot Chiefs) has written an extraordinary work focusing on a Native American viewpoint, which ranges from the ancient Maya and Olmec civilizations of Mexico to Hopewellian mound-builders of the Ohio Valley who forged a continent-wide trade network before A.D. 500, to the democratic Nez Perces of Idaho, Washington State and Oregon, nearly exterminated by 1880.This is an oversized or heavy book that requires additional postage for international delivery outside of Canada and the US.
