A Population History Since 1492 (The Civilization of the American Indian Series, #186)

"Where today are the Pequot? Where are the Narragansett, the Mohican, the Poknoket, and many other once powerful tribes of our people? They have vanished before the avarice and the oppression of the White Man, as snow before a summer sun." - Tecumseh (Shawnee)

The fires of the holocaust that consumed American Indians blazed in the fevers of newly encountered diseases, the flash of settlers’ and soldiers’ guns, the ravages of 'firewater', and the scorched-earth policies of the white invaders. Russell Thornton describes how the holocaust had as its causes disease, warfare and genocide, removal and relocation, and destruction of aboriginal ways of life.

This demographic overview of North American Indian history describes in detail the mass death that, even today, white Americans tend to dismiss as an unfortunate concomitant of Manifest Destiny. They wish to forget that, as Euro-Americans invaded North America and prospered in the "New World," the numbers of native peoples declined sharply; entire tribes, often in the space of a few years, were "wiped from the face of the earth."

Until recently most scholars seemed reluctant to speculate about North American Indian populations in 1492. In this book Thornton discusses in detail how many Indians there were, where they had come from, and how modern scholarship in many disciplines may enable us to make more accurate estimates of aboriginal populations.

"Just how many Indians were living in the Americas in 1492 is a hotly debated issue.…Thornton systematically compares the various approaches scholars have taken, drawing his own conclusions.…[he] also reviews contemporary Native American population gains and the increasing urbanization of this group as a whole in the 20th century."
