Overview

This book provides the first comprehensive history of the Native Peoples of
North America from their arrival in the western hemisphere to the present. It
describes how Native Peoples have dealt with the environmental diversity of
North America and have responded to the different European colonial regimes and
national governments that have established themselves in recent centuries. It
also examines the development of a pan-Indian identity since the nineteenth
century and provides a unique comparison not found in other histories of how
Native Peoples have fared in Canada and the United States.

print book, and how to buy it online, please see North America in the Cambridge
