4.0 out of 5 stars
How Native Americans Responded to the Westward Movement,
By Michael W. Fitzgerald (Northfield, Minnesota, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: To Be the Main Leaders of Our People: A History of Minnesota Ojibwe Politics, 1825-1898 (American Indian Studies) (Paperback)
Just briefly, I am an historian so perhaps I am not the general reader. But I found Rebecca Kugel's account of the Ojibwe (Chippewa) struggle to adapt to the rush of Euro-American settlement utterly absorbing. It makes the choices faced by Native Americans, and the factional divisions among themselves, clearer than anything else I've read.I am impressed enough with the book that I intend to use it as a textbook in my college class next semester. We'll see if my Minnesota students are equally impressed.

Fantastic!,

This review is from: To Be the Main Leaders of Our People: A History of Minnesota Ojibwe Politics, 1825-1898 (American Indian Studies) (Paperback)
This is one of the most compelling stories that I have read on the Indians experience with the Europeans. My son brought this home, it was one of his college books, and I could not put it down after I picked it up.
