'Everything you know about Indians is wrong." As the provocative title of Paul Chaat
Smith's 2009 book proclaims, everyone knows about Native Americans, but most of what
they know is the fruit of stereotypes and vague images. The real people, real communities,
and real events of indigenous America continue to elude most people. The Oxford Handbook
of American Indian History confronts this erroneous view by presenting an accurate
and comprehensive history of the indigenous peoples who lived - and live - in the
territory that became the United States. Thirty-two leading experts, both Native and
non-Native, describe the historical developments of the past five hundred years in
American Indian history, focusing on significant moments of upheaval and change, histories
of indigenous occupation, and overviews of Indian community life. The first section
of the book charts Indian history from before 1492 to European invasions and settlement,
analyzing US expansion and up to the twenty-first century. A second group of essays
consists of regional and tribal histories. The final section illuminates distinctive
themes of Indian life, including gender sexuality and family, spirituality, art, intellectual
history, education, public welfare, legal issues, and urban experiences. A much-needed
and eye-opening account of American Indians, this Handbook unveils the real history
often hidden behind wrong assumptions, offering stimulating ideas and resources for
new generations to pursue research on this topic. -- from dust jacket
