I'm sure, prior to 'our' arrival, they had plenty of their own problems. raiding each other's villages, and kidnapping the women and children to use as slaves .. not exactly paradise.

Thanks for the reading rec ... I'll certainly keep it in mind. I do most of my reading in the winter time (when fishing isn't so attractive! LOL)

Black Robe is another movie that portrays Indian life as it probably was.

We practically had a "group read" of :

Empire of the Summer Moon: Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in American History

over on the "Authors" thread.

Finest book on the American Indian I have ever read.
