The Menominee Indians, or wild rice people, have lived for thousands of years in the region that is now called Wisconsin and are the oldest Native American community that still lives there. But the Menominee's struggle for survival and rights to their land has been long and hard. David R. M. Beck draws on interviews with tribal members, stories recorded by earlier researchers, and exhaustive archival research to give us a full account of the Menominee's early history. Beginning in the seventeenth century, the Menominee's traditional way of life was intensely pressured by a succession of outsiders. Native nations attacked other Native nations, forcing their dislocation, and Europeans introduced the fur trade to the area, disrupting the traditional economy and way of life. In the nineteenth century Anglo-Americans poured into the Old Northwest and surrounded the Menominee; as a result the Menominee people were confined to a reservation in 1854. Beck examines these crucial early events from an ethnohistorical perspective, adding Menominee voices to the story and showing how numerous individuals and leaders in the trading era and later worked diligently to survive. The story is a complicated one: some Menominees encouraged radical cultural change, while others--as well as some non-Menominees--aided the community in its struggle to maintain traditions. Beck provides the most complete written history to date of this enduring Indian nation.Binding Type: Hardcover

Stylish, light (laptop, phone, notebook & pen) +
Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch, Color: Upgrade-apricot, Size: 15.6 Inch
Perfect for work! I use it for laptop, charger and few items necessary at work. I have a few blocks to walk from parking to work location and this bag has replaced last backpack and purse. Much easier to carry one item than two or more. Plus, it has enough room if you need to use it for clothes and toiletries (road-trip) or carry-on.

Comfy and supportive
Love it! Very snug and supportive. I am 5โ6โ 188 pounds. I am wearing a 34H and it fits perfect. Will definitely be adding more colors to my collection. Hopefully they add the HSIA Delia collection that are similar to these, but have printed options.
