Reviews
Oregon's tribal governments provide long-range planning and tangible solutions that take into account their members and their neighbors. "You are borrowing from your children's children when using natural resources," Old Chief Joseph, a Nez Perce whose homeland was northeastern Oregon, advised. "Think for year after year, for a far away ahead." In tribal oratory, I have heard leaders say that our ancestors maintained that same mind-set during critical times, making decisions for what is now our present generation. Making allowances for others, sharing responsibility, and honoring all in the process are other qualities of great leadership. Kathryn Harrison, a great-grandmother and the former chair of the Grand Ronde tribe, often stressed that the strength of the tribal council was in its collaboration. She follows in the tradition of Oregon's Sarah Winnemucca, who traveled to Washington, DC, repeatedly to appeal to Congress on behalf of her people, the Paiute. All demonstrate great care and concern for their tribes' future.

Synopsis
In 1991, the Oregon Council for the Humanities published The First Oregonians, the only single-volume, comprehensive history of Oregon's Native Americans. A regional bestseller, this collaborative project between the council, Oregon tribes, and scholars served as an invaluable reference for teachers, scholars, and general-interest readers before it went out of print in 1996. Now revised and expanded for a new generation of Oregonians, The First Oregonians provides a comprehensive view of Oregon's native peoples from the past to the present. In this remarkable volume, Oregon Indians tell their own stories, with more than half of the book's chapters written by members of Oregon's nine federally recognized tribes. Chapters on each tribe examine lifeways--from the traditional to the present day. Using oral histories and personal recollections, these chapters vividly depict not only a history of decimation and decline, but also a contemporary view of cultural revitalization, renewal, and continuity. The First Oregonians also includes essays exploring geography, federal-Indian relations, language, and art written by prominent Northwest scholars. And, as with the first edition, this new edition is richly illustrated with almost two hundred photographs, maps, and drawings. No other book offers as wide a variety of views and stories about the historical and contemporary experience of Oregon Indians. The First Oregonians is the definitive volume for all Oregonians interested in the fascinating story of Oregon's first peoples., Originally published in 1991, The First Oregonians has been revised and expanded for a new generation of Oregonians.
