Abstract
Michael Tate has provided scholars and students alike with a valuable and comprehensive bibliography of the various Indian tribes that once lived within the boundaries of the present state of Texas. Included are 3,796 citations on the native Coahuiltecan, Karankawa, Tonkaw'a, Jumano, \X/ichita, Caddo, Atakapa, Comanche, and Kiowa peoples a:; well as the emigrant Cherokees, AlabamaCoushattas, Seminoles, and Kickapoos who moved to Texas during the first half of the nineteenth century. The work is divided into two books. The first is a tribal arrangement focusing on Indian cultures, and the second is a chronological arrangement of Indian-white rclations from the Spanish era to the present. The final sections of the second book cover modern Indian writers, Texas Indian fiction by white authors, and works of interest to young readers on the Indians of Texas.
