Editorial Review

Product Description
The first book to present the history of Wisconsin's Native peoples from their own perspective.

From origin stories to contemporary struggles over treaty rights and sovereignty issues, Indian Nations of Wisconsin: Histories of Endurance and Renewal explores Wisconsin's rich Native tradition. Each chapter is a compact tribal history of one of the state's Indian nations-Ojibwe, Potawatomi, Oneida, Menominee, Mohican and Brothertown, and Ho-Chunk-and the book relies on the historical perspectives of Native people. Author Patty Loew focuses on oral tradition-stories, songs, the recorded words of Indian treaty negotiators, and interviews-as well as other untapped Native sources, such as tribal newspapers, to present a distinctly different view of history.

Elders and tribal historians from each of the twelve Native communities represented in the book participated in the book's development-making suggestions, recommending sources, and offering criticism. Indian Nations of Wisconsin is illustrated with more than seventy photographs. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful
This is used as a textbook for one of my American Indian Studies courses this semester and I love it. The author wrote it as a book of history so it doesn't feel or read like a boring textbook. Loew relies on oral history and many Native texts to really get the Indian history as accurate as possible, she tried hard to leave out the white American influences and assumptions. This should be a must for anyone interested in Native history.

5-0 out of 5 stars Refreshing look at Native American history!
Patty Loew takes a novel approach in this book and uses Native American sources to tell Native American history!Oral history, treaty minutes, recorded speeches by Native American leaders, and other Native sources are used over the traditional "white" sources that make up the majority of Native American history.The book reads extremely well and is intensely interesting.Each chapter tells the story of a Wisconsin Indian nation from the point of view of that nation.This is an enjoyable book to read for anyone interested in Native American history.Moreover, it is an invaluable addition to scholarship and a (hopefully) trend-setting example of using Native sources to tell Native history. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
This inspirational book celebrates the faith and courage of members of a traditional church that -- in 20th century America -- still struggling for religious freedom. Their Greatest challenge is the ongoing legal battle against the 1990 Supreme Court decision citing peyote use to deny the Native American Church the First Amendment right to 'the free exercise of religion'. Legislation providing an exemption to the Native American Church was overturned by the Supreme Court in 1997. The eloquent personal testimony offered by Church members from many different tribes demonstrates the spiritual strength of this religious tradition and makes it clear that peyote is not used to obtain 'visions' but to heal the body and spirit and to teach righteousness. Peyote meetings play, which stress abstinence from alcohol, truthfulness, family obligations, economic self-suffering, service, and prayer. This book is important reading for any one who cares about spiritual values, political process, and the individual's freedom to worship according to the dictates of conscience. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
The road from dispossessed people to successful nation was a long one, but for the Choctaws it has been worth the journey. This book examines how one tribe moved beyond setbacks to establish a powerful modern tribal government.

The Choctaws in Oklahoma begins with the Choctaws' removal from Mississippi to Indian Territory in the 1830s and then traces the history of the tribe's subsequent efforts to retain and expand its rights and to reassert tribal sovereignty in the late twentieth century. As Kidwell explains, Choctaws adapted to the very structures imposed on them by their colonizers: courts and laws. Tribal politicians quickly learned to use the rhetoric of dependency on the government, but they also demanded justice in the form of fulfillment of their treaty rights, and the Choctaw Nation confronted the government as a legal adversary to achieve its own ends. The Choctaws have adroitly negotiated with the United States and created the Choctaw Nation that exists today.

The Choctaws' story illuminates a key point in contemporary scholarship on the history of American Indians: that they were not passive victims of colonization and did not assimilate quietly into American society. The Choctaws in Oklahoma illustrates one tribe's remarkable success in asserting its sovereignty and establishing a national identity in the face of seemingly insurmountable legal obstacles. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellently sourced history, if a little thin at the end
This is a solid, well-sourced book for anyone interested in Indian and specifically Choctaw history, including law and Federal policies.Dr. Kidwell, always a superb writer, has a firm grasp of her sources (including an 1855 book by Peter Pitchlynn that I really HAVE to get over to the Library of Congress to see), and includes a chapter of her own family history to add a good personal touch.At no point in this work did I ever have a question about where an assertion was based in the extant record.

I do disagree slightly with Dr. Kidwell's take on two events (one being the excitement following the 1902 election), based on documents she does not appear to have touched (at NARA DC).This is always the fun part of being a researcher/scholar-- finding new sources to further lift the veil of time.

The two final chapters have the feel of an author rushed to deadline.I have no idea if this was the case, but I was really hoping for more in-depth examination of the circumstances related to the re-emergence of public Choctaw tribal political activity.

Seeing Dr. Robert K. Thomas (may his memory be for a blessing) mentioned and cited is wonderful."Uncle Bob," as he was known by his students, is still missed for his unvarnished opinions and concern for the development of both Indian scholars and scholars of Indian Studies.

An excellent work.

5-0 out of 5 stars Attempts to draw the lines connecting the past of this Native American tribe from their wrongful displacement
A people displaced, a people whose history has been hard to track. "The Choctaws in Oklahoma: From Tribe to Nation, 1855-1970" attempts to draw the lines connecting the past of this Native American tribe from their wrongful displacement back in the mid nineteenth century to over one hundred years later. A story of how a tribe tries to stay true to its heritage when everything around them tries to change them, "The Choctaws in Oklahoma" is both saddening and intriguing about the cruelty and resolve of human nature.
