A CENTURY OF DISHONOR
remains the bible of U.S. dirty dealings with American Indian tribes. ANY version is an asset to historians, but a vintage hardbound is sweetness.
The greatness of Helen Jackson's work is spectacular. To ANY history student, this is the missing half of U.S. history. It should be mandatory reading; the amazing volume of information here is the only, honest, accurate account of how Indians kept getting kicked around. An amazing read; a reality check for anyone who's ever wondered what was missing in the wild, wild west.
Possibly the most important mind-changing book you'll ever own.
