The Trail of Tears af Gloria Jahoda
Good individual images of Native leaders.
The author has a Master's Degree in anthropology from Northwestern University. She has written other books and numerous articles. Peter Farb, author, anthropologist and biologist said of this work, "[It is] a highly readable, well researched, and altogether fascinating account of a dreadful chapter in American history. Ms. Jahoda's scholarship is evident, yet it never gets in the way of her story and her outrage." Source: The book's dust jacket. The book includes chapter notes, a bibliography, an appendix of selected government documents on Indian removal and is well indexed.… (mere)
A very interesting book about the relocation of the many Indian nations to other parts of the country by the US Government. It is not a very flattering account of how our government dealt with a group of people to whom we promised much but broke most of those promises.
