Weeks, Farewell, my nation - The American Indian and the United States, 1820-1980

Abstract

If you teach a class on nineteenth-century American history, a survey class in which you focus on the American Indian, or even a social anthropology class, you might want to use this fine study. It is well-written, easy to read, and nicely organized. It has an added feature of four maps that helps the reader to follow the ever-changing geographic situation of the tribes. Philip Weeks's study is a well-balanced account of what to do with the Native Americans.
