DESCRIPTION The White Man's Indian: Images of the American Indian, from Columbus to the PresentAuthor: Jr Robert F. BerkhoferPublisher: Random House USA IncCategory: Social & Cultural History, Ethnic Studies, Indigenous Peoples, SociologyBook Format: Paperback A compelling and definitive history...of racist preconceptions in white behavior toward native Americans.-Leo Marx, The New York Times Book Review Columbus called them Indians because his geography was faulty. But that name and, more important, the images it has come to suggest have endured for five centuries, not only obscuring the true identity of the original Americans but serving as an ideological weapon in their subjugation. Now, in this brilliant and deeply disturbing reinterpretation of the American past, Robert Berkhofer has written an impressively documented account of the self-serving stereotypes Europeans and white Americans have concocted about the Indian: Noble Savage or bloodthirsty redskin, he was deemed inferior in the light of western, Christian civilization and manipulated to its benefit. A thought-provoking and revelatory study of the absolute, seemingly ineradicable pervasiveness of white racism, The White Man's Indian is a truly important book which penetrates to the very heart of our understanding of ourselves. A splendid inquiry into, and analysis of, the process whereby white adventurers and the white middle class fabricated the Indian to their own advantage. It deserves a wide and thoughtful readership.-Chronicle of Higher Education Robert F. Berkhofer, Jr., was Professor of History at the University of California, Santa Cruz. His works include A Behavioral Approach to Historical Analysis; Salvation and the Savage: An Analysis of Protestant Missions and American Indian Response, 1787-1962; and The White Man's Indian: Images of the American Indian from Columbus to the Present.
