Product Description
A fascinating, noteworthy, and beautifully illustrated book about Native American maps, "Another America" opens a window on the North American continent as it was understood and experienced by its original inhabitants. Each map serves as a focal point for a narrative on the traditions and experiences of the people involved in its creation. 90 illustrations, many in color.Amazon.com Review
The Europeans who conquered the Americas and their descendantswere not the first to map the hemisphere, museum curator Mark Warhuswrites in this fascinating, richly illustrated study of NativeAmerican cartography. Indian maps--made on buffalo skins, rocks, bark,and, later, paper--claimed territorial rights, explained treatiesamong nations, delineated trade routes, and showed the locations ofresources. Many of those maps wound up in dusty attics and the backshelves of museums, where Warhus has hunted them out; his stories offinding these lost treasures are as illuminating as hisinterpretations of what might be called pre-scientific ways ofgraphically describing the land. These maps, he writes, are ofimportance today not only for their own sake, but also as evidence ofhistoric holdings in current claims over lost territories. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars can't seize the land before it's been described
This is a story of dispossession and of cultural memory. Mark Warhus reveals an astonishing legacy of native American cartography. Most of the maps are snapshots of important moments in the collision of two cultures. Some of these maps are the absolute last artifacts of tribes who have disappeared, such as the maps of Shanawdithit (Nancy) the last surviving member of the Beothucks (or Red Indians of Newfoundland).

Other maps demonstrate the deep ties to tribal lands once lost but more recently regained.

Native American mapmaking is intertwined with oral history. Therefore, these maps are also historical treasures. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Ever since a Native American prepared a paper "charte" of the lower Colorado River for the Spaniard Hernando de Alarcón in 1540, Native Americans have been making maps in the course of encounters with whites. This book charts the history of these cartographic encounters, examining native maps and mapmaking from the pre- and post-contact periods.

G. Malcolm Lewis provides accessible and detailed overviews of the history of native North American maps, mapmaking, and scholarly interest in these topics. Other contributions include a study of colonial Aztec cartography that highlights the connections among maps, space, and history; an account of the importance of native maps as archaeological evidence; and an interpretation of an early-contact-period hide painting of an actual encounter involving whites and two groups of warring natives.

Although few original native maps have survived, contemporary copies and accounts of mapmaking form a rich resource for anyone interested in the history of Native American encounters or the history of cartography and geography. ... Read more

This is the first book to present rare and seldom-seen maps made by Native Americans (NA). These maps open a window on the North American continent as it was understood and experienced by its original inhabitants.

The historical and cultural context of the maps is used to illuminate the web of human, animal, natural, and spiritual relationships that shaped the NA world.

5-0 out of 5 stars Good place to start in understanding our difficult past
Forbes has written a well-documented and lucid account of the local tribes in California and Nevada dealing with a succession of non-native invaders:the Spanish, the Mexican-Indian, and the Anglo-Americans.Unfortunately,these invaders used increasingly hostile forms of removal, forced laborcamps, and extermination to achieve their desires for land and resouces. Can the US criticize any nation for ethnic cleansing or genocide with sucha history? Certainly not without acknowledging our own past:this is thefresh perspective one gets from reading Forbes' book. Forbes also makesclear there has been a long process of renewal in local tribes, whichcontinues with vigor and hopefulness today. ... Read more
