I had an email from a Swedish woman who wanted to know what books to buy for Christmas gifts, she was very particular about just getting the good ones that Indians would approve of. (I just love getting emails like that....much better than "can I have an Indian name for my dog?"-emails.

I don´t like the look of the first book on the list, but other than that, I don´t have a clue. Does anyone know more about them?

THANKS!
Annika

Gabriel Horn looks pretty questionable. We need to a start a research thread on him.

Dream Catchers actually looks like it'd be quite a good book. I'm going to look for it myself. Look at the description.
"How attitudes toward Native American spiritually evolved from horror to appropriation."

The Judith Nies book is pretty good. I have it.

I haven't read the Hirschfelder book, but I know she does some very good work.

The Black Kettle book looks like straightforward history, but I haven't read it either.

I have Dreamcatchers. It is a very good book. Bryant reccomended it on his group.

Thanks a lot, Al and Debbie! I will forward this to her.  :)
