This was a sort of idiosyncratic history of Native Americans in the US and Canada. It’s not all-inclusive nor deeply thorough, but then, it wasn’t supposed to be. It was one person’s view of how they’ve been treated by the two governments and the issues facing them today. While the subject is a weighty one, the authors tone is more light-hearted with a strong touch of humor. It’s a good beginning for someone who wants a general overview of the history.
