Below is a link to a list of books in Seymour Library about Native American history topics written by Native Americans. Perspectives of Indigenous scholars and voices should serve to broaden and complement our understandings of historical events. [Many thanks to Haley Campbell, Henke Library Fellow, 2023, for assistance with developing this list.]
A list of Native American scholars and their works appear on pages 240-242 of An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States, on reserve in Seymour Library.

Important Note about Language
You may encounter subject headings that are out of date as it takes time for the changes to propagate through all the different library catalogs. And, some headings that seems insensitive to us may be under scrutiny at this time. For example, discussion is ongoing about the headings for Indigenous peoples of the Americas.
