Despite a recent resurgence in studies of death and disease in
native peoples of the Western Hemisphere, little work has been done
on death and disease in Native Americans during the reservation
period of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Forgotten Voices:
Death Records of the Yakama, 1888-1964 begins a discussion of the
health of the people on the Yakama Reservation in Washington using
statistical data. This is the first detailed work that focuses on
the causes of death on American Indian reservations. It contains an
extensive introduction to Yakama history and lifestyle, and tables
that present statistical information on the major causes of death.
Each chapter highlights a different cause of death on the Yakama
Reservation, including * Tuberculosis * Pneumonia * Heart Disease *
Gastrointestinal Problems * Influenza * Cancer * Birth
Complications * Old Age * Stroke Forgotten Voices is an invaluable
resource for students and scholars that encourages further research
in the field of Native American history.
