Must have for native american history buffs or any north carolinian

I grew up in South Carolina. As a kid, my dad and I spent countless hours walking plowed fields in search of native american artifacts. I am now a resident of Raleigh, North Carolina. I knew there was a rich native american history here in North Carolina, but I knew nothing of the diversity of tribes that were here, particularly before the early English settlements. This is a fantastic book. It is well written, easy to follow, and contains great excerpts from historical documents. It was written by a Moravian minister, so the writing style is a little more conversational and a lot less "dry" than many history texts.

The American Indian In North Carolina

One of the great works on North Carolina Indians, and specifically the coastal Indians, which most studies neglect. Excellent scholarship, good writing, well presented.
