From the Foreword by Rogers C.B. Morton, Secretary of the Interior: "American Indians have determined many of the characterisitcs of American life as it is lived today. Their confederations, their culture, their resistance to white expansion, and the non-Indian position in relation to them have shaped the government, the history, the geography, and the outlook of the United States as a Nation and as a people. ... will help Indians and non-Indians alike understand what happened when two cultures collied on the land that has become the United States."
