Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Narratives of Captivity Among the Indians of North America: A List of Books and Manuscripts on This Subject in the Edward E. Ayer Collection of the Newberry Library The extraordinary completeness of the Ayer Collection in its several divisions of the literature relating to the Indians of North America can only be fully appreciated by the student who investigates it. In the formation of his great collection of Americana, one object among others which Mr. Ayer always had in view was: to procure all obtainable books and manuscripts which record the first contact of the white man with every known tribe of North American Indians, together with those which describe how thereafter the white man treated the Indians, what the results of his settlement among them were, and what the later history of each Indian tribe was. The section containing the various editions of works containing narratives of the experiences of captives among the Indians is one which should have an especial interest to readers and students of American history. From this material alone, the historian should be able to gather numerous details of primary importance in picturing the conditions under which the early explorers and pioneer settlers lived, labored, and ceaselessly pushed forward the boundaries of the frontier. Chiefly as an aid to research, therefore, and to some extent on account of the inadequacy of existing bibliographical descriptions of this class of Americana, the present list of narratives of Indian captivity has been compiled. It comprises over three hundred titles of individual editions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: These eight reports by white settlers held captive by Indians gripped the imagination not only of early settlers but also of American writers through our history. Puritans among the Indians presents, in modern spelling, the best of the New England narratives. These both delineate the social and ideological struggle between the captors and the settlers, and constitute a dramatic rendition of the Puritans' spiritual struggle for redemption.

Book The White Man s Indian

  • Author : Robert F. Berkhofer
  • Publisher : Vintage
  • Release : 2011-08-03
  • ISBN : 0307761975
  • Pages : 306 pages

Download or read book The White Man s Indian written by Robert F. Berkhofer and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-08-03 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Columbus called them "Indians" because his geography was faulty. But that name and, more importantly, the images it has come to suggest have endured for five centuries, not only obscuring the true identity of the original Americans but serving as an idealogical weapon in their subjugation. Now, in this brilliant and deeply disturbing reinterpretation of the American past, Robert Berkhofer has written an impressively documented account of the self-serving stereotypes Europeans and white Americans have concocted about the "Indian": Noble Savage or bloodthirsty redskin, he was deemed inferior in the light of western, Christian civilization and manipulated to its benefit. A thought-provoking and revelatory study of the absolute, seemingly ineradicable pervasiveness of white racism, The White Man's Indian is a truly important book which penetrates to the very heart of our understanding of ourselves. "A splendid inquiry into, and analysis of, the process whereby white adventurers and the white middle class fabricated the Indian to their own advantage. It deserves a wide and thoughtful readership." —Chronicle of Higher Education "A compelling and definitive history...of racist preconceptions in white behavior toward native Americans." —Leo Marx, The New York Times Book Review
