Summary

"Combining more than 100 maps with more than 300 illustrations, National Geographic's Atlas of Indian Nations delivers an unparalleled portrait of the Native American journey. Created with the expertise of National Geographic cartographers and editors, and written by Ojibwe award-winning author and scholar Anton Treuer, this compelling volume is the essential historical atlas for any library....Within each chapter, National Geographic cartographers and editors have created a geographic experience, maps of each tribe's historic territory and language groups, detailed maps of important events of the region, and hand-drawn maps of individuals' encounters with tribes in the days when all of North America was Indian country" -- from the book jacket.
