The beginning of the story of the American
Indians is shrouded in the mists of time. It is
believed that these native Americans first came
to this continent by way of the land bridge which
existed thousands of years ago between America
and Asia. In time, these wanderers traveled the
length and breadth of this continent, establishing
rich and diverse cultures.
Some tribes were hunters and warriors, some
were farmers and peacemakers. Each tribe
blended with the environment, giving and taking
from the land, and wedding itself to nature. Then
the White Man came-and everything changed.
These books examine some of the great native
American tribes-their myths, their history, their
social structure and daily life, their warriors and
wise men, their victories and defeats.
