Mike Lewandowski: I do like history books that give a different perspective on events. This does that, but it is a bit dry - a long, sad march through what happened when and why.

Tosha @bigbuttandabook: This was an amazing and informative read. I appreciated how it was laid out and revert back to information that the reader may have missed. This is the first book of many I’ll be reading. Life today has shown us that history is truly doomed to repeat itself and I want to be informed on all fronts.

Craig Adams: This text provides a much welcome perspective on US history. I hope school teachers everywhere add it to their libraries and read passages to their students. In my family history research and in visiting local history sites in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, I frequently encounter "firsting and lasting." The authors remind us that Native Americans are still here. Thanks to this book, I now follow several Native American thought leaders on Twitters and the authors' American Indians in Children's Literature (AICL) website.

Kindle Customer: This book provides a detailed look at Indigenous life in both North and South America. Children will learn what life was like before Europeans came, the importance of corn in Indigenous life, about tribal affiliations, and how life changed once colonist appeared. Kids will learn that both Americas were settled lands with cities and governments of their own. They will see how Native people formed alliances with states and governments, and how tensions spread as the newcomers took more and more land. This book is an important addition to American history, and children will benefit from studying the work. Teachers and parents will find questions and exercises a useful tool.
An adult version of this book exists for a more in-depth study. I strongly recommend this book for classrooms, libraries, and homes.
