This straightforward guide breaks down their ten-thousand-plus year history and explores their influence on European settlement of the continent. You'll gain fresh insight into the major tribal nations, their cultures and traditions, warfare and famous battles; and the lives of such icons as Pocahontas, Sitting Bull, and Sacagawea. You'll discover: ● How and when the Native American's ancestors reached the continent ● How tribes formed and where they migrated ● What North America was like before 1492 ● How Native peoples maximized their environment ● Pre-Columbian farmers, fishermen, hunters, and traders
