Rapid Treatment with Too Little Substance,
This review is from: The Shawnee (Hardcover)
This brief volume is a reasonable introduction to the Shawnee indian nation by a Kentucky anthropologist. It gives a broad portrait of life for the Shawnee and their intertribal and pioneer relations. The book is clearly written with admiration for the life and ways of the Shawnee, but it is extremely light on first hand research, coverage of intimate Shawnee life details and on matters such as language and cultural identity. It seems targeted perhaps at the curious teenager who seeks a simple book report for high school local history. I wish it could have been more comprehensively researched, and more scholarly in its fine points and notes while maintaining its accessibility and general readibility.
