Time Life Books The American Indians Volume INCOMPLETE 10 Volumes Set Hardcover

Description: This lavishly illustrated series entry concentrates on Native American tribes occupying the terrain between the Continental Divide and the Cascades and the Sierras, including Paiutes, Shoshones, Bannocks, Utes, Nez Perce, and Flatheads. The book is divided into three chapters with no introduction or conclusion, and deals with the history and lifestyles of the tribes, the effect of the white settlers on them, and their attempts to defend their lands. Interspersed with the text are five photo essays highlighting specific topics. Each chapter is very broad in scope, and continuity is sometimes confusing as the text switches rapidly from one tribe to another. Twelve color pages contain paintings and excerpts from Father Nicolas Point's account of the De Smet mission. Briefly treated are the reservation system and the resulting hardships, the allotment program, and the practices of the Ghost Dance religion. T
