Book Synopsis


Trade Review

"Insightful...Bauer's real contribution is his rich depiction of people and storied places in California."

* Pacific Northwest Quarterly *

"A new direction in the telling of Indigenous California history has been established where voices of the state's first people are the authority. Leading the way is William J. Bauer Jr.'s book California through Native Eyes."

* Studies in American Indian Literatures *

"The kind of history that foregrounds Native people as central actors is still not mainstream, but historians like William Bauer are aiming to do just that, to engage with Native voices and Native stories to tell a Native history and challenge contemporary understandings of history."

* News from Native California *
