Greetings!

 

We are happy to introduce a new book, American Indians in the Civil War, which is now available for purchase on eParks.

 

Created through a unique partnership between the National Park Service, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Bureau of Indian Education, the American Indian Alaskan Native Tourism Association, and Eastern National, this publication is the first of its kind to explore the Native American perspective. It adds tribal voices to another chapter of American history, and encourages people to embrace the American Indian perspective into the context of America's past, present and future.

 
American Indians and Civil War
  

 

In a war that freed enslaved African Americans, most Indian people fought to stay free in a land once theirs alone. A crucial part of the Civil War story is that more than 20,000 American Indians fought on both sides of the conflict. Many who fought thought they'd be able to protect their lands, instead, federal Indian policy became more perverse during the war, eventually leading to Westward expansion and the devastation of Native peoples.
