A MAP HISTORY OF AMERICAN INDIAN TRIBES

(Large - 44" x 29")    (Small - 35" x 22")

This fabulous 44" x 29" map was compiled by Perry C. VanArsdale and copyrighted in 1972.  It is a two color poster.  Items written in black are U.S. military establishments and fur trading posts (including dates they were in operation).  City and state names are also written in black.  Items written in red deal with the American Indian tribes.  The map shows how various tribes migrated from one area of the U.S. to another in the pre-reservation period of U.S. history.  It also shows some of the favorite hunting areas of some tribes and areas of major battles with other Indian tribes and with the whites.  The map also contains numerous historical 'tidbits' about the American Indians.  If you enjoy studying about the American Indians, you are going to have to get one of these!!
