About this title

Synopsis:

Enhanced with full-color photos of pieces in the Smithsonian collection, this compilation of poems by young Native Americans offers an insightful exploration of Native American history, tradition, and culture.

About the Author:

The National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI), the newest Smithsonian Institution museum, is dedicated to working in collaboration with the indigenous peoples of the Americas to protect and foster Native cultures throughout the Western Hemisphere. The museum¹s publishing program seeks to augment awareness of Native American beliefs and lifeways, and to educate the public about the history and significance of Native cultures.

NMAI opened its George Gustav Heye Center in lower Manhattan in 1994. In 1998, the museum¹s Cultural Resources Center, a state-of-the-art research and storage facility, opened in suburban Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C. The museum will open its primary site on the National Mall in Washington in 2002. Visit NMAI on the world wide web at www.si.edu/nmai.
