In a magnificent piece of historical reconstruction, extensively and beautifully illustrated with his own color and b&w drawings, author/artist Mails, famous for his Mystic Warriors of the Plains (1972) and other works dealing with the history and ethnology of Native Americans, tells the story of the Cherokee people from their origins to the present time. 9.5x12.25". Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
This lengthy account of a tribe that has long captured America's imagination covers Cherokee ways and history from their earliest appearance in the Southeast through the forced removal of most of the nation to Indian Territory to life today in North Carolina and Oklahoma communities. The author's well-known line drawings and paintings highlight the text. His chatty, often anecdotal presentation, compounded by casual footnotes and a few obvious inaccuracies, make this book suitable only for the general reader. Eastern Cherokee history is covered more clearly by John Finger in both his The Eastern Band of Cherokees, 1819 - 1900 (Univ. of Tennessee, 1984) and his Cher okee Americans: The Eastern Band of Cherokees in the Twentieth Century (LJ 7/91 ). -- Mary B.
