Most of the time, however, the European invaders brought with them disease and violence, which spelled the end of the Native Americans' way of life.

The Wisdom of Native Americans brings together centuries of wisdom, much of it collected for the first time.

The Native American Life series has been written to dispel many of the myths and stereotypes about Native American history and traditions, and to provide a more accurate and encompassing journey into the world of Native Americans.
