Indian Giver A Legacy of North American Native Peoples Lowes, Warren Publisher:  Canadian Alliance in Solidarity with Native People, British Columbia Year Published:  1986   Pages:  114pp   Dewey:  303.48241 Resource Type:  Book Abstract:  INDIAN GIVER traces just some of the significant contributions made by Native people to the modern world. One chapter surveys some of the many, many place names of Native origin, and traces some of the words and terms which came to us from Native languages. The way in which whites learned from Natives how to survive and thrive on this continent, and were helped in establishing themselves, are the subject of another chapter. Also described are Native knowledge about health care and healthy living, and of agriculture and food. The final chapters look at Native influence on folk democracy, and point to the importance of the Native vision for the future if we are to live in peace with nature and each other. Topics Aboriginal History History/Canadian Native Peoples
