Back matter is extensive, and includes a general chronology of North American Indian history, an alphabetical list of tribes with their locations, both historical and contemporary, a list of reservations by state in the US, and by province in Canada, an alphabetical list of major Indian place names in the US and Canada, and a list of museums, historical societies, reconstructed villages and archeological sites pertaining to Indians in the US and Canada. Finally there is a bibliography and index.
Evaluation: While much of this information can be gleaned off of the internet, it is very nice to have it all in one place, as this book provides. ( )
