Review: Kah-wam-da-meh


Kah-wam-da-meh
Kah-wam-da-meh by Jean Frazier

My rating: 2 of 5 stars



This is a nice, compact and high-level history of Michigan's Native American's. The title referers to the Indian idiom co-opted in "Avatar" for the "I See You" philosophy. The history goes from early French traders to the British and colonlian period to the devastation of the reservation system. The books final chapters deals with modern times and the political and socioeconomic realities of Michigan's tribal bands.
