Good resource for students

Pasqua provides a history of the Navajo, the largest group of Native Americans in the United States. More importantly, she depicts the lives of these people in the present day. Presented as a living people with unique systems of government and education, ceremonies and stories, homes and histories, the Navajo Nation becomes more real and meaningful for the general reader. The Fast-Facts section with accompanying map and the Internet resources make this book an ideal reference for writing reports. Consultation with the Navajo Nation Historic Preservation Department adds authenticity to Pasqua's scholarship.
