Encyclopedia of American Indian History & Culture: Stories, Timelines, Maps, and More (Nat Geo Kids)

Written by Cynthia O'Brien

More than 160 tribes are featured in this encyclopedia, which presents a comprehensive overview of the history of North America's Native peoples. From the Apache to the Zuni, readers will learn about each tribe's history, traditions, and culture, including the impact of European expansion across the land and how tribes live today. Features include maps of ancestral lands; timelines of important dates and events; fact boxes for each tribe; bios of influential American Indians such as Sitting Bull; sidebars on daily life, homes, food, clothing, jewelry, and games; Did You Know facts with photographs; and traditional Native stories. Colorful photographs add to the text information, and to help give kids the lay of the land, this reference is arranged by region, and all federally recognized tribes are included.
