Encyclopedia of Native Tribes of North America
by Michael Johnson

 
       
  $29.95  
     
 

Encyclopedia of Native Tribes of North America bookThis superb, fully illustrated reference offers the most up-to-date and essential facts on the identity, kinships, locations, populations and cultural characteristics of some 400 separately identifiable peoples native to the North American continent, both living and extinct, from the Canadian Arctic to the Rio Grande. This revised edition adds 32 pages, updates all facts and provides improved illustrations and maps.

The abundance of illustrations and photographs form an especially rich store of material describing the vast range of Native American material culture. The maps are valuable pictorial representations of major historical events. Population and settlement trends based on the most recent US Census paint detailed portraits of all officially recognized tribes.

The book includes:

  • More than 300 color and archival photographs, many of them improved selections
  • Extensive visual coverage of tribal dress and cultural artifacts
  • 21 regional maps, including prehistoric cultural and historic sites and tribe distribution maps, as well as maps showing movement of tribes and non-indigenous troops during conflicts, all updated as needed
  • More than 100 specially commissioned color illustrations, also improved as needed.

This is one of the most comprehensive, up-to-date and useful references published in recent years. Scholarly and accessible, it is an important record of the Native American peoples and an essential purchase for schools and libraries.

Paperback with full color cover and full color dust cover, 2014, 8.25" x 11.75", 336 pages, 100 commissioned artworks, 300 photographs, 21 maps, language table, reference appendix, glossary and index. $29.95.
