Some of you think an Indian is like a wild animal. This is a great mistake. I will tell you all about our people, and then you can judge whether an Indian is a man or not. . . What I have to say will come from my heart, and I will speak with a straight tongue, ' Chief Joseph, Nez Perce. Lee Miller was the writer and head of research for the television series based on 500 Nations - the acclaimed history of North American Indians.

Here is the testimony of more than 250 Indian civilizations -of the Aztec king Moctezuma, the Seminole leader Osceola, Tecumseh, Cochise, Sitting Bull, Geronimo and Sarah Winnemucca - and of the white men who fought, betrayed and, on rare occasions, defended them.
