Another America: Native American Maps & the History of Our Land
This is the first book to present rare and seldom-seen maps made by Native Americans (NA). These maps open a window on the North American continent as it was understood and experienced by its original inhabitants. The book brings to life the people, the places, and events of this NA history. Each map is the focal point for a narrative on the traditions and experiences of the people involved with its creation. The historical and cultural context of the maps is used to illuminate the web of human, animal, natural, and spiritual relationships that shaped the NA world. Illustrated with beautiful color reproductions of the maps and pictures that reflect contemporary life and culture.
