Köp båda 2 för 488 krAn excellent example of the ideal blending of Native viewpoint with Western academic literary demands.Choice This book will make its way into the bookstores and into the syllabi of American Indian history courses. It also serves as a wonderful addition to the paucity of literature on Native people in Florida during the twentieth century. Readers will definitely enjoy learning about the life and times of Buffalo Tiger, and hopefully this collaborative effort will broaden our understanding of Native struggles for sovereignty and self-determination in an age of colonialism, ethnic strife, and environmental devastation.Jeffrey P.
