Flags of the Native Peoples of the United States proudly display symbols of tribal traditions, art, and culture. In Native American Flags,
Donald T. Healy and Peter J. Orenski present an encylopedic look
at the flags and histories of 183 Native American tribes throughout
the United States. Listing Indian nations alphabetically, this fully
indexed reference includes both federally recognized tribes and
other groups, and offers an image of each tribe's flag and a map of
their location within the United States. Each entry includes a brief
summary of the tribe's history, presents information on contemporary
Indian peoples, and describes and illustrates in detail the symbolism
and imagery of each Native American flag. A gallery of color plates
includes full-color representations of 192 historic and contemporary
Native flags.
