DK Eyewitness Guides: North American Indian by David Murdock

Peaceful farmers on the fertile Mid-Atlantic seaboard fierce warriors in the wooded Northeast nomadic buffalo hunters on the Great Plains and igloo-dwellers in the frozen Arctic - the North American Indians were as diverse as the vast continent on which they lived. From the simple spear points of the Paleo Indians to the intricately carved totem poles of the tribes of the Northwest coast the stunning art forms of these unique peoples are illustrated in breathtaking detail. Examine the beautiful headdresses of the Haidas marvel at the transformation masks of the Kwakiutls and admire the magnificent ceremonial costumes of the Dakotas. Written by David Murdoch Senior Lecturer in American History at Leeds University and produced in association with The American Museum of Natural History North American Indian is an exciting introduction to North America's native peoples.
