From origin stories to contemporary struggles over treaty rights
and sovereignty issues, "Indian Nations of Wisconsin" explores
Wisconsin's rich Native tradition. This unique volume--based on the
historical perspectives of the state's Native peoples--includes
compact tribal histories of the Ojibwe, Potawatomi, Oneida,
Menominee, Mohican, Ho-Chunk, and Brothertown Indians. Author Patty
Loew focuses on oral tradition--stories, songs, the recorded words
of Indian treaty negotiators, and interviews--along with other
untapped Native sources, such as tribal newspapers, to present a
distinctly different view of history. Lavishly illustrated with
maps and photographs, "Indian Nations of Wisconsin" is
indispensable to anyone interested in the region's history and its
Native peoples.
The first edition of "Indian Nations of Wisconsin: Histories of
Endurance and Renewal," won the Wisconsin Library Association's
2002 Outstanding Book Award.
