Summary:
Examines the physical, spiritual, and cultural destruction of the Native Americans, from the 17th-century Puritan prejudices that helped generate the pernicious image of the "savage Indian" to the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee. Also discusses the decimation of the Native American population through the introduction of European diseases.
