The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America

The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account ofNative People in North America 

Thomas King



In his work, Thomas King admirably tackles the larger history of Aboriginals in North America, yet at the same time, he offers his personal experiences, thoughts and anecdotes about living as an “Indian” in the United States and Canada. King offers great insights into how non-Natives and Natives have interacted in the past and in the present. This book is a good read for those looking for an introduction to Aboriginal history and education, and for those looking to understand more about how history impacts communities and individuals.
