Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 5-8-The Powhatan Indians of the Virginia tidewater areas were a powerful confederacy of about 30 tribes at the time of the arrival of the first Europeans near the end of the 16th century. Despite the loss of their languages and religions, the post-Civil War years saw the remaining Powhatan peoples?primarily Pamunkeys?cling to their status and culture. McDaniel does a fine job of relating the Pamunkeys' history and their struggle to maintain their identity despite intermarriage with other races and continual encroachments on their remaining land. Good-quality black-and-white photographs and reproductions appear throughout, and there is a section of full-color photographs of Pamunkey pottery. A solid choice. ?Lisa Mitten, University of Pittsburgh, PA
