Description
An Unspeakable Sadness: The Dispossession of the Nebraska Indians by David J. Wishart is a meticulously researched study that examines the impact of land acquisition on the indigenous peoples of Nebraska.
Working from primary documents and incorporating American Indian voices, Wishart analyzes the spatial and ecological repercussions of dispossession, shedding light on the complex interactions between European-Americans and Native American communities in the 19th century.
The book provides a valuable insight into this pivotal period in American history, using maps to illustrate the shrinking territories of Native American societies as they were restricted by increasingly intense social control policies.
