The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America by Thomas King

3.0

I learned a lot reading this book, and it is disheartening to learn about how the past keeps repeating itself and doesn’t seem to be getting any better. I appreciated how this was written about both Canada and the US. Gave an idea of how not much is better on either side of the border. I only gave this three stars, because it was a bit too much like a textbook for me - I liked his stories, and would have preferred less facts and dates, but I suppose that was the purpose of the book, wasn’t it? To provide facts? It’s just a personal preference. I will continue to seek out books on this subject matter.
