Download or read book Native Americans in the Susquehanna River Valley Past and Present written by David J. Minderhout and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-23 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first volume in the new Stories of the Susquehanna Valley series describes the Native American presence in the Susquehanna River Valley, a key crossroads of the old Eastern Woodlands between the Great Lakes and the Chesapeake Bay in northern Appalachia. Combining archaeology, history, cultural anthropology, and the study of contemporary Native American issues, contributors describe what is known about the Native Americans from their earliest known presence in the valley to the contact era with Europeans. They also explore the subsequent consequences of that contact for Native peoples, including the removal, forced or voluntary, of many from the valley, in what became a chilling prototype for attempted genocide across the continent. Euro-American history asserted that there were no native people left in Pennsylvania (the center of the Susquehanna watershed) after the American Revolution. But with revived Native American cultural consciousness in the late twentieth century, Pennsylvanians of native ancestry began to take pride in and reclaim their heritage. This book also tells their stories, including efforts to revive Native cultures in the watershed, and Native perspectives on its ecological restoration. While focused on the Susquehanna River Valley, this collection also discusses topics of national significance for Native Americans and those interested in their cultures.
Download or read book Faces of the Susquehanna written by Stephen W. Pidcock and published by Schiffer Publishing Limited. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographer Steve Pidcock sees faces in the magical reflections of water and rock along the Susquehanna River. Though not everyone sees them in the same way, more than 200 images show the beautiful scenery, details of rocks, plants, and shapes and colors of the seasons and how, with a slightly different perspective, they reveal surprising results. Early Native Americans used these waters as a major highway. Today, sports enthusiasts and environmentalists use it for recreation and research. Laid out in what the photographer calls "Verti-zontal Art," the humorous and sometimes dark "beings" within the images take form. If you love art, nature, history, or just enjoy viewing the world from a different vantage point, then this book is for you.
