(More customer reviews)My brother gave me this book shortly after my family and I visited the Tuscarora Reservation in New York this summer. Our great-great grandmother was a Tuscarora, although her family settled in Pennsylvania and never continued the journey to New York. I thoroughly enjoyed this book! It helped me to understand what I saw and learned from talking with Chief Leo Henry and, also, with Preston Chuy in Smokin'Joe's Smoke Shop. I have a new appreciation of the Native American branch of my family! Thanks so much!

Tuscarora is a sovereign nation in the Niagara region of upstate New York and a member of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. The Tuscarora were the first native people to be dispossessed of their land during the colonization of the United States. The certainty of their future was at stake as they walked north, beginning in 1713, to join their Haudenosaunee relatives. Now, almost 300 years after this hardship, they are prospering as a people. Tuscarora Nation depicts their culture and traditions, the height of their agricultural success, the rich heritage of lacrosse, the unique fishing culture along the Niagara River, and their traditional government of chiefs and clanmothers.
