"The received idea of Native American history has been that it essentially ended with the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee. Growing up Ojibwe on a Minnesota reservation and training as an anthropologist, David Treuer has uncovered a different narrative: the story of American Indians from the end of the nineteenth century to the present is one of unprecedented resourcefulness and reinvention. Melding history with reportage and memoir, Treuer traces the tribes' distinctive cultures from first contact, exploring how the depredations of each era spawned new modes of survival"--Back cover.
