Abstract

First published in 1967, this is an indispensable resource for information about the current Indian population and its affairs. The title may be misleading since information about the Canadian Indian population is also provided. It does not offer any chronological history of the North American Indian complete with pictures and maps, such as Carl Waldman's classical work, Atlas of the North American Indians, but instead provides a basic reference directory of current (1986) Indian activities, organizations, resources, and a "who's who" in the Indian culture.
