Hasinai : A Traditional History of the Caddo Confederacy,
By James S. Traver (Savannah, Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hasinai: A Traditional History of the Caddo Confederacy (Hardcover)
This book is one of my all time favorites. This book is very easy to read. The late Vynola Beaver Newkumet, a respected Caddo Tribal elder wrote this book with the assistance of a talented non tribal member writer. It is full of easily absorbed interesting information about the Caddo Tribe and its people.You will find yourself returning to favorite passages in this book to re experience them. This book is a traditional history but it isn't mainstream American traditional history. It is explained from a distinctly Native American point of view. Hasinai provides narratives of Caddo Tribal business council and cultural leaders. It also provides information about Caddo tribal words and language. This is a living history book. There are very well taken photographs in this book. Some must be extremely treasured by their owners. This definitely is a must have book. You and your children will enjoy it. It will be a conversation piece.
