The Footsteps They Left Behind (Hardback) Carol Dean

When reading about Native Americans, not many will consider exactly what Native Americans are doing now. That's understandable considering the appalling history of battles for lands, traditions, and their cultures under the white man's hands. No set of peoples or civilisations have ever had to face such trauma as the Native Americans have for hundreds of years. That's the history that is read about, understood, and hopefully learnt from, so that it never happens again. But Native Americans have come through everything that they have had thrown at them over the years, and are now making a new history. A history of renewed interest and learning in their cultures, language, traditions and their turbulent past. With many Native Americans reaching great heights in a very competitive world. This book covers that new Native American history and honours just some of those involved.
