A History of Zuni Indians of America by Francis Klett

The Zuni Indians are Native Americans; a Pueblo tribe residing at Zuni on the bank of the Rio Zuni near the boundary of New Mexico, and in the adjoining villages of Nutria, Ojo Caliente, and Pescado. They were discovered by Fray Marcos de Niza, a Franciscan missionary in 1539. Fray Marcos accompanied by a black Estavanico and some Indian guides had set out in that year to prepare the way for his fellow missionaries in unexplored regions. Estavanico had been sent forward to inspect the unknown lands; when Fray Marcos arrived in Arizona after passing through Sonora he learned that Estavanico had been killed. This is the history of Zuni Indians of America.
A professor of English at Chicago State University, Jesse Green has also edited Cushing at Zuni, The Correspondence and Journals of Frank Hamilton Cushing, 1879-1884.
