5.0 out of 5 stars
A work of incredible historical significance.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Facing West: The Metaphysics of Indian-Hating and Empire-Building (Paperback)
"To all appearances," wrote Richard Drinnon, "it all began innocently enough with a first victim" (Indian-Hating 35). Indeed, in Drinnon's 'Facing West: The Metaphysics of Indian-Hating and Empire-Building,'those first victims finally have the chance to tell their story through the records of their conquerors. From John Endicott's war on the Niantics and Pequots, to the horrors of the My Lai massacre, Drinnon illustrates, with passion, power and unrelenting wit, how Indian-hating in the Americas became a national pastime, and how that same hate was turned against the native populations of the Phillipines and Southeast Asia. A tremendous feat of scholarship that should not be missed.

A very good analysis, ocassioanlly one-sided, but the side he takes is that of the weak.
