› Find signed collectible books: 'Agents of Repression: The Fbi's Secret Wars Against the Black Panther Party and the American Indian Movement'Book summary:[via]For those wondering how Bill Clinton could pardon white-collar fugitive Marc Rich but not Native American leader Leonard Peltier, important clues can be found in this classic study of the FBI's COINTELPRO (Counterintelligence Program). Agents of Repression includes an incisive historical account of the FBI siege of Wounded Knee, and reveals the viciousness of COINTELPRO campaigns targeting the Black Liberation movement. The authors' new introduction examines the legacies of the Panthers and AIM, and shows how the FBI still presents a threat to those committed to fundamental social change.
Ward Churchill is author of From a Native Son. Jim Vander Wall is co-author of The COINTELPRO Papers: Documents from the FBI's Secret Wars Against Dissent in the United States, with Ward Churchill.

Blood Meridian, Or, the Evening Redness in the Westby Cormac McCarthyISBN 0880010924 (0-88001-092-4)
Softcover, Ecco Press

› Find signed collectible books: 'Blood Meridian, Or, the Evening Redness in the West'Book summary:"The men as they rode turned black in the sun from the blood on their clothes and their faces and then paled slowly in the rising dust until they assumed once more the color of the land through which they passed." If what we call "horror" can be seen as including any literature that has dark, horrific subject matter, then Blood Meridian is, in this reviewer's estimation, the best horror novel ever written. It's a perverse, picaresque Western about bounty hunters for Indian scalps near the Texas-Mexico border in the 1850s--a ragged caravan of indiscriminate killers led by an unforgettable human monster called "The Judge." Imagine the imagery of Sam Peckinpah and Heironymus Bosch as written by William Faulkner, and you'll have just an inkling of this novel's power. From the opening scenes about a 14-year-old Tennessee boy who joins the band of hunters to the extraordinary, mythic ending, this is an American classic about extreme violence. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Gifts of Pride and Love: Kiowa and Comanohe Cradles'Book summary:"We look at this cradle as representing a particular family; we see that someone took time to create it; we feel the love that it expresses; it speaks to us; it tells us of our past."--Philip Bread
With such words, Kiowa and Comanche people express their deep connection to their traditional lattice cradles. Prevalent from 1870 to 1930, these cradles represented a unique, yet extremely practical, art form. These "gifts of pride and love" reflected close networks, which remained intact despite the difficult transition to reservation life, new religions, government boarding schools, and allotment of tribal lands. This book, a beautiful homage to the artisans who crafted cradleboards, includes a history of the origins of lattice cradles as well as essays by eleven descendants of cradle makers. Forty color and over eighty black-and-white photographs vividly display the creativity and imagination found in these lovingly produced cradles. Reminding people of the Kiowas' and the Comanches' long, arduous struggles to create and maintain a viable identity, the cradles featured in this book connect us to the past.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Indian in the Cupboard'Book summary:What could be better than a magic cupboard that turns small toys into living creatures? Omri's big brother has no birthday present for him, so he gives Omri an old medicine cabinet he's found. Although their mother supplies a key, the cabinet still doesn't seem like much of a present. But when an exhausted Omri dumps a plastic toy Indian into the cabinet just before falling asleep, the magic begins. Turn the key once and the toy comes alive; turn it a second time and it's an action figure again.
The Indian in the Cupboard is one of those rare books that is equally appealing to children and adults. The story of Omri and the Indian, Little Bear, is replete with subtle reminders of the responsibilities that accompany friendship and love. For kids, it's a great yarn; for most parents, it's also a reminder that Omri's wrenching decision to send his toy back to its own world is not so different from the recognition of their children's emerging independence.
The Indian in the Cupboard is also available in Spanish (La Llave Magica.) (The publisher recommends this book for children ages 9-12, although younger kids will enjoy hearing it read aloud.) [via]

Returning to Earthby Jim HarrisonISBN 0887842119 (0-88784-211-9)

› Find signed collectible books: 'Returning to Earth'Book summary:Now in paperback, Jim Harrisons Returning to Earth has been universally praised, and is one of his most popular recent books. In Returning to Earth, Harrison has delivered a masterpiecea tender, profound, and magnificent novel about life, death, and how it is sometimes possible to find redemption in unlikely places.
Donald is a middle-aged Chippewa-Finnish man, married to a white woman who renounced the wealth she was raised with, and father to two grown children. As Returning to Earth opens he is slowly dying of Lou Gehrigs disease. His condition deteriorating, he realizes no one alive will be able to pass on to his children their family history once he is gone. He begins dictating to his wife, Cynthia, stories he has never shared with anyoneas around him, his family struggles with how to lay him to rest with the same dignity with which he has always lived.
Over the course of the year following Donalds death, his loved ones struggle with how to let him go. His daughter begins studying Chippewa ideas of death for clues about her fathers religion, and her mother is at loose ends for how to protect or guide her. Bereft of the family she created to escape the malevolent influence of her own father, Cynthia, along with her brother, David, an eccentric whose life mission is to prevent Mexican bordercrossers from dying in transit, find, all these years later, that redeeming the past is not a lost cause.
Returning to Earth is a deeply moving book about origins and endings, how to make sense of loss, and how to live with honor for the dead. It is among the finest novels of Harrisons long, storied career, and confirms his standing as one of the most important American writers now working. [via]More editions of Returning to Earth:

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Smithsonian Book of North American Indians'Book summary:From Wikipedia: The indigenous peoples of the Americas are the pre-Columbian inhabitants of North and South America, their descendants, and other ethnic groups who are identified with those peoples. Indigenous peoples are known in Canada as Aboriginal peoples,[21] and in the United States as Native Americans.[22] They are commonly referred to as Indians, Red Indians, American Indians, or Amerindians, but are also known by their specific tribal and cultural ancestry and citizenship. ~~~ According to anthropologists, Amerindians are Proto-Mongoloid people. Margaret Sleeboom-Faulkner of the Department of Anthropology at the University of Sussex said Kanz? Umehara considered the Ainu and some Ryukyuan to have "preserved their proto-Mongoloid traits".[23] Proto-Mongoloid features can be found in most Amerindians,[24] and according to anthropologist Elsie Clews Parsons physical features of the "Proto-Mongoloid" were characterized as, "a straight-haired type, medium in complexion, jaw protrusion, nose-breadth, and inclining probably to round-headedness". ~~~ Application of the term "Indian" originated with Christopher Columbus, who thought that he had arrived in the East Indies while seeking Asia. The name was still used as the Americas at the time were often called West Indies. This has served to imagine a kind of racial or cultural unity for the aboriginal peoples of the Americas. Once created, the unified "Indian" was codified in law, religion, and politics. The unitary idea of "Indians" was not originally shared by indigenous peoples, but many over the last two centuries have embraced the identity.[citation needed] ~~~ According to the New World migration model, a migration of humans from Eurasia to the Americas took place via Beringia, a land bridge that connected the two continents across what is now the Bering Strait. The most recent point at which this migration could have taken place, where the first Americans set foot on Alaska, is 40,000 - 12,000 years ago... [via]

Smoke from Their Fires: The Life of a Kwakiutl Chiefby Clellan S. FordISBN 0881339156 (0-88133-915-6)
Softcover, Waveland Pr Inc

› Find signed collectible books: 'Smoke from Their Fires: The Life of a Kwakiutl Chief'Book summary:First published more than a half century ago, this book documents the remarkable life story of a chief of the once-powerful Kwakiutl Indian nation that lived on the northwest coast of Vancouver Island. Told in the first person, readers are not only introduced to the life history of a highly intelligent Kwakiutl individual from the cradle almost to the grave, but are also presented with a complete sketch of indigenous culture as seen through the eyes of the informant. Accounts such as this are valuable. In no other way can a reader today achieve such deep insight into the actual functioning of a now-vanished culture. Charley Nowell's fascinating story, told at the age of 70, is prefaced by a useful forty-page introduction to Kwakiutl society. [via]
