Abstract

"Almost every school in the United States teaches an Indian Unit, somewhere in the elementary grades. Yet the published material about Indians is often either sentimentally unrealistic or brutally untrue. Indians were and are neither ignorant and bloodthirsty savages, nor misunderstood heroes. Indians are human beings like ourselves, living interesting normal lives in accordance with customs and beliefs which are prehistoric in origin--but greatly modified by several hundred years of contact with non-Indians. You and your children are entitled to know them as they are." Includes prices and descriptions. Some have large red "Out of Print" overlapping them.
