Description

The memory of the bloody massacre was still fresh in the hearts of the soldiers, and they showed no mercy... At some point, a wounded Indian tried to escape, hanging from the tail of his horse, but a carbine bullet killed the animal and a soldier caught up with the warrior and pulled the trigger. However, the gun jammed and then the savage turned around and shot him. At the same time, a bullet from a detector pierced the savage, who collapsed fighting.

In a milestone work on American and world literature, Charles Browne presents the history of all the indigenous tribes of North and South America, from the time of the first colonization of the Western Hemisphere in 1492 to the mid-19th century. Customs and traditions, peaceful contacts and terrible wars with the colonizers, mutual cruelties and massacres, are described by the author with astonishing vividness and impartiality, offering a wealth of information that is presented for the first time to the Greek reading audience.

In the fourth book, the tribes of the southern United States are presented, such as the Creek, the Cherokee, and the Choctaw, and the great battles they fought with the Americans even in the early 19th century. The customs and traditions of the indigenous inhabitants of Canada and the Arctic Circle, such as the Eskimos, the Cree, and the Chipewyan, are described. There is also extensive reference to the indigenous peoples of the western United States, such as the Sioux, the Blackfeet, and the Cheyenne, from their activities in times of peace, such as bison hunting on the vast prairies of the Great Plains, to the terrible massacre of the settlers in Minnesota in August 1862 by the Sioux of Little Crow.
