North America covers the period from the prehistory of the North American Indians to the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890. It examines the social and family structures, lifestyles and belief systems of the Iroquois of the Northeast Woodlands, the Sioux of the Plains, and the Navajo of the Southwest, before colonisation by the English, French and Spanish. North America looks at the reasons for this colonisation, the ways it occurred and the immediate and more lasting effects on the indigenous peoples. The book is full colour throughout, draws on a wide range of sources and contains learning outcomes and focus issues. The activities will help to build students' historical skills while ensuring that history remains fun!
