About the Book

First Peoples is the only book of its kind: a complete text with readings for the undergraduate survey course in Native American history. Written by a noted scholar and experienced textbook author, First Peoples combines documentary evidence with narrative that can anchor a course whether assigned alone or with a variety of supplements. Each chapter includes a brief narrative; primary-source documents, with headnotes and questions; and a topical picture essay.

About the Author :
Colin G. Calloway is a professor of history and Samson Occum Professor of Native American Studies at Dartmouth College. He served for two years as associate director of and editor at the D'Arcy McNickle Center for the History of the American Indian at the Newberry Library in Chicago and taught for seven years at the University of Wyoming. Professor Calloway has written many books on Native American history, including "The Scratch of a Pen: 1763 and the Transformation of North America" (2006); "One Vast Winter Count: The Native American West Before Lewis and Clark" (2003); and two books for the Bedford Series in History and Culture: "Our Hearts Fell to the Ground: Plains Indians Views of How the West Was Lost" (1996), and "The World Turned Upside Down: Indian Voices from Early America" (1994).

Review :
"First Peoples is the best overview of American Indian history that I have read. The discerning selection of documents provides students with a rich array of experiences and voices. Without any hesitation, I will use this text in my survey course of American Indian history." "A remarkable achievement. Colin Calloway illustrates through Native art and words the views, beliefs, policies and lifestyles that characterized a myriad of individual nations and groups. In "First Peoples", the Indian peoples' many and rich histories come alive." -- James E. Sherow, Kansas State University ""First Peoples" offers a balanced look at a difficult and complex past and tells the story of Native-U.S. relations with sophistication and subtlety." -- Jose Antonio Brandao, Western Michigan University
