A to Z of Native American Women by Liz Sonneborn is a must-read, true account of Native American history for anyone interested in Women Studies or Native American Studies. This reference work lays fiction to rest and presents readers with the reality of growing up female in a Native American environment. This resource contains in-depth biographical research about over one hundred Native American women, from the well-known to the little known; included are the first female chiefs, the first Native American trained as a physician, and famous figures like Sacagawea and Pocahontas (both of whom are widely portrayed as supporters of European colonization--this book dispels this and other popular fallacies).

This is one of many powerful reference works located in Worcester Public Library and will benefit anyone looking to gain more substantial knowledge about women, Native American women, Native American culture, and American History. You will not find this information readily available and as uniquely compiled through a Google search!
