From the author of How the World Moves --the classic collection of more than 500 years of Native American History In a series of powerful and moving documents, anthropologist Peter Nabokov presents a history of Native American and white relations as seen though Indian eyes and told through Indian voices. Beginning with the Indians' first encounters with European explorers, traders, missionaries, settlers, and soldiers to the challenges confronting Native American culture today, Native American Testimony spans five hundred years of interchange between the two peoples. Drawing from a wide range of sources--traditional narratives, Indian autobiographies, government transcripts, firsthand interviews, and more--Nabokov has assembled a remarkably rich and vivid collection, representing nothing less than an alternate history of North America. "Nabokov achieves what no one has before: the retelling of a half-millennium of history from an Indian viewpoint."--Jerry Mander, The Nation "A major contribution to documentation of the historical interface bewtween Indian and non-Indian." -Joseph Epes Brown, author of The Sacred Pipe  Peter Nabokov is professor of American Indian Studies and World Arts and Cultures at UCLA. His previous books include A Forest of Time , Native American Testimony , Native American Architecture (with Robert Easton), Indian Running , Two Leggings: The Making of a Crow Warrior , and Architecture of Acoma Pueblo .
