Download or read book The Navajos Classic Reprint written by Oscar H. Lipps and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Navajos Little Histories of North American Indians is designed to give in plain and simple form a concise and authentic history of the North American Indians by tribes. So far, most of the literature giving relia ble accounts of the life, manners, customs, habits, religion, mythology, arts, and crafts of the various Indian tribes of our country is contained chiefly in government reports and in scientific works which are either not readily accessible to the reading public, or are too scientific and technical to be enjoyable and entertaining to the average general reader. The aim, then, is a popular and reliable little history of our North American Indians which will, in a measure, satisfy the ever increasing desire on the part of Americans for a more intimate knowledge of the first of all Americans. It has not been the intention to present in this little book - the first of the series - any new facts concerning the Navajos, but rather to bring together the facts already known of the tribe.

IN the most extensive and, to my mind, the most reliable ver sion which I have recorded of the great creation and migration myth of.the Navajos, more than two thirds of the story is told before the first mention of an existing gens is made. Men (or anthropo pathic animals and anthropomorphic gods, as they may better be considered) had ascended through four lower worlds to this world they had passed through many dire vicissitudes they had increased and warred and wandered; they had been almost exterminated by evil powers; the sacred brothers - the Navajo war-gods - had been born, had grown to manhood, and had in turn slain the evil tormen tors of their race, before the ancestors of the nuclear gens of the Navajos were created.

Download or read book A History of the Navajos written by Garrick Alan Bailey and published by School for Advanced Research Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of the Navajos examines these circumstances over the century and more that the tribe has lived on the reservation. In 1868, the year that the United States government released the Navajos from four years of imprisonment at Bosque Redondo and created the Navajo reservation, their very survival was in doubt. In spite of conflicts over land and administrative control, by the 1890s they had achieved a greater level of prosperity than at any previous time in their history.
