Download or read book Lives of Celebrated American Indians Classic Reprint written by Samuel Griswold Goodrich and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of Celebrated American Indians In the course of the Cabinet Library, it is proposed to give three volumes upon the Aborigines of North America, to consist of the present volume, entitled Celebrated Indians of North America, with one upon their Manners and Customs, and one upon their History. The general object of these works will be to make the reader familiar with the real character and genius of that remarkable and peculiar race of men, which, however divided into various tribes and nations, are still of one lineage, and were the masters of the American continent - the lords of the New World, in its entire length and breadth - when it was discovered by Columbus. There are several reasons why this subject has not been well understood. The conquerors and spoilers of America had strong motives for first hating, and then defaming, the Aborigines. Cortes yearned for the wealth of Mexico, and, to obtain it, he must slaughter millions of the people, and enslave the rest. Having done this, he would naturally seek to justify his conduct to his own conscience and the world at large, by representing them in the most degrading and revolting colors. Pizarro would have the gold and silver of Peru, and, to cover up the atrocities he committed in obtaining it, must represent the people he betrayed and butchered, as ungodly heathen, whom it was not only lawful, but praiseworthy, to sweep from the face of the earth.

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.

As the original data disappear, so do new generations realise the value of What has passed, and every portion of history or folklore thus preserved and studied becomes to the highest degree valuable and interesting. Many Americans of to - day, especially those of the middle and far west, may be direct descendants of those hardy pioneers or frontiers men who were, but a few years since, either friends or foes of the original inhabitants of the lands they now occupy. These or like instances are, for the most part, well within the memory of the living, and this interest, already well advanced, will continually develop.
