Summary:
"From the dedication of the Mayan ballcourt at Chichen Itza in A. D. 864 to modern political activism and government legislation affecting Native peoples, here is virtually every significant event in North American Indian history. It also includes fascinating information on hundreds of battles and skirmishes between Indians and whites, as well as countless treaties made and broken. An extensive appendix includes information about Indian tribal names and calendars. It's all here--Indian chiefs, wars, massacres, treaties, reservations, modern consititutions, and much, much more." "This Day in North American Indian History is a one-of-a-kind, vastly entertaining and informative book covering over 500 years of North American Indian history, culture, and lore. Wide-ranging, it covers over 4,000 important events involving the Native peoples of North America in a unique day-by-day format." "The thousands of entries in This Day in North American Indian history weave a compelling and comprehensive mosaic of North American history spanning more than a half a millenium--every entry an exciting opening into the fascinating but little-known history of American Indians."--BOOK JACKET.
