Middle School (9 - 14) Books

AMERICAN INDIAN TRIBES, Marion E. Gridley. New York : Dodd, Mead & Co., 1974. (Grades 5-9)

Given the enormous task of covering all of the American Indian tribes, Gridley has written one of the better books on this subject. She divided the tribes into twelve categories and has only listed tribes considered to be distinct. Each tribe is discussed in terms of its past and current condition. Numerous photographs can be found. Biographical information about notable individuals in each tribe has been included Religion was not adressed in any detail.
