The Native Americans & 500 Nations Illustrated History Set (2 HC, 1991–94)
Set of two richly illustrated hardcover volumes exploring the histories and cultures of Indigenous peoples across North America.
1. The Native Americans: An Illustrated History (Turner Publishing, 1991) — Edited by Alvin M. Josephy Jr., with contributions from leading scholars including David Hurst Thomas, Jay Miller, Richard White, and Peter Nabokov. This comprehensive reference presents essays, maps, and artwork documenting Native life from prehistoric origins through contemporary times.
2. 500 Nations: An Illustrated History of North American Indians (Alfred A. Knopf, 1994) — Written by Alvin M. Josephy Jr. as a sweeping narrative history and companion to the CBS documentary series hosted by Kevin Costner. The book features hundreds of color images and first-person accounts tracing the rise, decline, and enduring legacy of more than 500 Native nations.
Together, these volumes form a visually compelling and historically authoritative set on Native American heritage—ideal for collectors, educators, and cultural historians alike.
