About the Author :
Anthony F. C. Wallace is Professor Emeritus of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania. He is the author of many books, including The Death and Rebirth of the Seneca.

Review :
"This delightful book reads more like a memoir than an ethnographic history, but it is filled with great ethnographic and historical perspectives. Demonstrated in the text is a sense of humility-in essence, Wallace writing candidly about being corrected by community members, including his hosts ... overall Wallace adds to the growing aggregate of Haudenosaunee cultural and historical books ... Highly recommended." - CHOICE "...an accessible, insightful, and challenging work that embodies the self-aware, self-critical thinking that now characterizes the discipline of anthropology ... Tuscarora: A History is free of illusions, worshipfulness, pity. It's an exercise in, and an exemplar of, 'the good mind.'" - Artvoice
