Clifford E. Trafzer

As Long as the Grass Shall Grow and Rivers Flow: A History of Native Americans

Paperback (Cengage Learning Nov. 18, 1999) , 1 edition
Although coverage chronologically spans from prehistory to the present, the emphasis is on the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It is written in a readable, flowing manner and is deeply rooted in native traditions and lore. The title is a reference to a message sent by President Andrew Jackson to the Choctaws and Chickasaws indicating that, as a friend, he planned to move the people to the Trans-Mississippi West to "land of their own, which they shall possess as long as grass grows or water runs."
