Das grosse Buch der Indianer

Indians - the indigenous people of the American continent have exerted a magical attraction with their way of life, their culture, and their customs for decades. Far beyond the mythical Wild West romance and the supposedly heroic conquest epics of Spanish or Portuguese conquistadors, the Native American tribes captivate with the courage they displayed in repeatedly confronting overwhelming and treacherous opponents, striving to defend their dignity and natural rights. This book offers a detailed insight into the history and culture, particularly of North American Indians. The first part presents all tribes in alphabetical order in detail. Their history and culture are the focus here and are documented with numerous photographs, some of which are in color. The second part of the work addresses the predominantly dark chapter.
