The Chumash thrived along the Pacific coast in California for centuries. But eventually new settlers wanted their land and forced the Chumash into a new way of life. Today, the Chumash celebrate their traditions as they move toward the future in modern America.
"Content in each book is divided into four basic categories: origins, contact with Europeans, contemporary tribal life, and efforts to protect or preserve traditions. The writing is clear and accessible. The series excels at highlighting characteristics that make each tribe unique. . . .The authors do not shy away from injustices these groups faced at the hands of the U.S. government and people. However, ample space is given to explore and celebrate each group in the present day. Illustrations are an attractive, well-curated balance of etchings, maps, and photographs. . . .Informative and nuanced, this series will make a nice addition to most school and public library collections." - School Library Journal
