The story of Pocahontas saving John Smith is justly famous; as is the cross-country journey of Sacajawea with the Corps of Discovery; and Sarah Winnemucca earned fame by being a champion of her people as the old ways of life were disappearing. But there are lesser known stories of the Native American women who shaped their cultures and changed the course of American history. Illustrated with archival photographs; and encompassing twenty states―from Florida to Washington; Alaska to Maine―and many different tribes; this book brings together these amazing stories.

Very InformativeBy A CustomerI wanted to learn something about the traditional beliefs of the Akan people so I ordered this book. It was very readable and very informative. What interested me the most was that the author used structures developed by Fowler and Erikson. Since these two are foundational in the study of western faith and personality development; I felt right at home; even though the destination of the book was halfway around the globe. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in a "first book" about this subject.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good information.By Quick As EverJust started reading.
