The European Challenge (American Indians (Time-Life))

The European Challenge details the clash of cultures beginning 500 years ago. When the voyager Colon--known to posterity as Columbus--and his crews arrived in the Caribbean, native tribes were awed by the pale, bearded men from afar. Over the next 200 years, however, as waves of Spanish, English, Dutch, French, Portuguese, and Russian adventurers arrived in the New World, the simplicity and wonder of native inhabitants elicited cynical oppression and bloodshed.Time-Life Books is the author of 'The European Challenge (American Indians (Time-Life))' with ISBN 9780809494088 and ISBN 0809494086.
