Native American Books

There are a lot of books on Native Americans. The listings below link to Amazon but be sure to check your local library first. Much of what I have read were borrowed from local libraries. This is a very short list of only a few that I have read - folks are encouraged to browse further online and read what else they can find...

The top three books listed below are IMHO the best on the subject. I was fortunate to have the opportunity tin 2018 to visit the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian in lower Manhattan where I bought James Wilson's The Earth Shall Weep book. His book is an eye opener for sure.
