Synopsis Dictionary of Daily Life of Indians of the Americas by : Frank Gille

DICTIONARY OF DAILY LIFE OF INDIAN OF THE AMERICAS contains information on the customs, ways, ceremonies, tribal languages, cultural characteristics, weapons, food, drink, clothing, myths, legends, and many, many more articles. From the Aleuts of the Arctic region to Onas in southern Argentina and Chile, this is a contemporary work and its intention is to bring modern day insights to the consideration of the native peoples who populate the western hemisphere. Modern anthropologists and historians tend to agree that there is a basic homogeneity (cultural, social, biological, or other similarities within a group) among the native peoples of the Americas that need to be considered when any of the tribes are studied. The entries were written by noted local, national and international historians and anthropologists.

Synopsis Dictionary of Indian Tribes of the Americas by : Jan Onofrio

DICTIONARY OF INDIAN TRIBES OF THE AMERICAS - Second Edition contains information on over 1,150 tribal nations of the entire western hemisphere, from the Aleuts of the Arctic region to Onas in southern Argentina and Chile. This is a contemporary work and its intention is to bring modern day insights to the consideration of the native peoples who populate the western hemisphere. Every effort has been made to include tribes that have not been extensively covered in other publications. Modern anthropologists and historians tend to agree that there is a basic homogeneity (cultural, social, biological, or other similarities within a group) among the native peoples of the Americas that need to be considered when any of the tribes are studied. The tribal entries were written by noted local, national and international historians and anthropologists.

Synopsis Creating America by : Joyce Moser

For Writing/Composition courses especially those with a focus on argument and/or research. This reader emphasizes the argumentative strategies students need to analyze and write arguments. At the same time, it helps students see that Americans have always defined themselves and maintained a sense of unity despite great diversity through ongoing public debate about what America means. Selections reflect colonial times to the present and include posters, photographs, advertisements, and court cases in addition to essays, poems, and stories.
