The first book to present the history of Wisconsin's Native peoples from their own perspective -- From origin stories to contemporary struggles over treaty rights and sovereignty issues, Indian Nations of Wisconsin: Histories of Endurance and Renewal explores Wisconsin's rich Native tradition. Each chapter is a compact tribal history of one of the state's Indian nationsâ"Ojibwe, Potawatomi, Oneida, Menominee, Mohican and Brothertown, and Ho-Chunkâ"and the book relies on the historical perspectives of Native people. Author Patty Loew focuses on oral traditionâ"stories, songs, the recorded words of Indian treaty negotiators, and interviewsâ"as well as other untapped Native sources, such as tribal newspapers, to present a distinctly different view of history. Elders and tribal historians from each of the twelve Native communities represented in the book participated in the book's developmentâ"making suggestions, recommending sources, and offering criticism. Indian Nations of Wisconsin is illustrated with more than seventy photographs. Patty Loew is an enrolled member of the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe and recipient of the Outstanding Service Award of the Great Lakes Intertribal Council. Formerly a news reporter and anchor for television stations in Canada, Washington, Oregon, and Wisconsin, she is assistant professor of life sciences communication at the University of Wisconsinâ"Madison, co-host of WeekEnd on Wisconsin Public Television, and producer of award-winning documentaries including No Word for Goodbye, Spring of Discontent, Throwaway Future, and Nation Within a Nation
