Native Nations is an ethnographic and historical study of the Indigenous nations of North America. It emphasizes the historical processes that affected and continue to affect Native societies and the People’s responses both in the past and the present to confirm their traditions and protect their sovereignties.

Combining historical background with discussion of contemporary Native nations and their living cultures, this comprehensive text introduces students to the many Indigenous peoples in North America. Organized by region to highlight cultural practices, each part covers the topography, climate, and natural resources in the area and describes the range of cultural practices and beliefs among groups. Subsequent tribe-specific chapters are devoted to different Native communities, addressing both their history and contemporary lives.
