American Indian Chronology: Chronologies of the American Mosaic published by Greenwood Press provides high school students and the general reader with a basic historical list of Native American events of significance. The focus is the United States and covers the distant past to the 16th century in the first chapter. The 5 remaining centuries from 1600 to 2005 are covered in the rest of the reference book. The author organized the list of events according to 36 subject categories such as agriculture and farming; animals; archaeology; arts and crafts; civil rights and protests; death and burial; education and schools; legends and storytelling; politics; population; religion and spirituality; and treaties. The author is a university reference librarian. He selects the most common understanding of historical events such as the founding of the Iroquois Great Law of Peace and selects the standard ethnohistorical date as 1400. The guide has a glossary of terms, bibliography and index.
