Footsteps of the Cherokees: A Guide to the Eastern Homelands of the Cherokee Nation
Virtually every region of the United States has Native Americans as part of its past. Photographer Rozema has done an excellent job of uncovering locations in the Southeast that document the history of the Cherokee people and often their interactions with increasing numbers of European Americans. She first gives an overview of Cherokee history, then focuses on the historical sites, providing details about Cherokee and other individuals who left their marks at each place. Black-and-white photographs illustrate both sections. While there are several guides to Native America, most notably Discover Indian Reservations USA: A Visitor's Welcome Guide, edited by Veronica Tiller (Council Pubs., 1992), none covers one area or one tribe in such detail. Essential for libraries in the Southeast and of value to most travel collections.Mary B.
