Описание: American History from 1865: Artifacts and Reflections encourages students to not only study the content of our shared histories, but also to critically examine and assess competing narratives through a variety of diverse perspectives. The texts, images, audio recordings, and films covered within the text delve into the unique histories and experiences of women, African Americans, children, and native people, as well as the role of inanimate actors of the past, such as the environment.
Beginning in 1865 and proceeding chronologically, students are introduced to a variety of historical events viewed through the lens of contemporary inquiries. They critically examine the real-world aftermath of the Civil War, the cultural conflict ignited through western expansion, the push for monolingualism in America, and the origin of the idea of social Darwinism. Dedicated readings explore the role of racial violence in the Great Migration, the association of immigrants and disease in 1920s American society, and the reasons why President Truman dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima during World War II. Students learn about American involvement in Vietnam, the journey of the African American teacher before and after Brown v. Board of Education, the rise of American conservatism, and contemporary issues related to race and multiraciality in the U.S.
A highly approachable text featuring modern perspectives on America's past, American History from 1865 is ideal for undergraduate courses in American history for non-history majors.

Описание:
Here is the oral history of the Apache warrior Chevato, who captured eleven-year-old Herman Lehmann from his Texas homestead in May 1870. Lehmann called him “Bill Chiwat” and referred to him as both his captor and his friend. Chevato provides a Native American point of view on both the Apache and Comanche capture of children and specifics regarding the captivity of Lehmann known only to the Apache participants. Yet the capture of Lehmann was only one episode in Chevato’s life.
Born in Mexico, Chevato was a Lipan Apache whose parents had been killed in a massacre by Mexican troops. He and his siblings fled across the Rio Grande and were taken in by the Mescalero Apaches of New Mexico. Chevato became a shaman and was responsible for introducing the Lipan form of the peyote ritual to both the Mescalero Apaches and later to the Comanches and the Kiowas. He went on to become one of the founders of the Native American Church in Oklahoma.
The story of Chevato reveals important details regarding Lipan Apache shamanism and the origin and spread of the type of peyote rituals practiced today in the Native American community. This book also provides a rare glimpse into Lipan and Mescalero Apache life in the late nineteenth century, when the Lipans faced annihilation and the Mescaleros faced the reservation.
