While various attempts to document Native American history in the United States have been made, rarely have Indians been considered in relation to the individual states which they inhabited both before and after statehood. With the effects natives have had on state formation, not to mention the changes effected by states upon native societies, this oversight causes a substantive gap in our understanding of Native Americans that these volumes now rectify.
Daniel S. Murphree teaches Native American history at the University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL, and is interim assistant editor of Florida Historical Quarterly.
"This wonderful, thoughtfully compiled resource will be useful to
those interested in exploring Native American culture as framed by
a more localized and specialized context. The set provides a wealth
of information for middle and high school students as well as those
interested in knowing a little bit more about Native Americans in
their surrounding area." - Library Journal
"This three-volume set provides a welcome approach to Native
American history. . . . The state-by-state approach of this work
fills a niche." - Choice
