Rediscovering America
This is an eye-opening, scholarly rebuttal to common perceptions about native American society before and after the European invasion. Ronald Wright makes no secret of his bias in favor of the people who were here first; in fact, he enhances the impact of what for many will be new information by presenting this extraordinary history from the point of view of the conquered. He also makes clear how large a part of the conquest was due to immune system rather than military deficiencies: if smallpox and other diseases had not done killed most of the native population, the facts recounted here suggest that history, particularly in South America, may have evolved quite differently. In undertaking the massive task of recounting the invasion of all of the Americas, some selectivity is inevitable. Wright has chosen to focus on the story of five distinct native groups: Aztec, Maya, Inca, Cherokee and Iroquois. He then arbitrarily subdivides the story into three consecutive time periods: Conquest, Resistance and Rebirth. After the physical and political annihilation recounted in the first two sections, the title of the third may seem overly optimistic, particularly for the Guatemalan Maya. However, the concluding tone is more conciliatory and hopeful than mournful, particularly in the Afterword that updates matters to 2005, 13 years after the original publication date. The astounding amount of research involved in producing this admittedly selective overview is well-indexed and annotated. My only quibble is that Wright, obviously an expert in the field of native culture, sometimes borders on the compulsive in matters of linguistic authenticity. I did not buy this book to learn ancient native languages, let alone their pronunciation, and at times I found the inclusion of such trivia distracted from rather than enhanced the otherwise convincing scholarship. This obsession with accuracy is commendable, but after getting it out of his system in the Author's note, his amazing narrative would have been no less compelling if he stuck to the language of his contemporary audience. Also, for an author who has settled in British Columbia, it is strangely disappointing that the rich history of the Pacific Northwest coastal natives was not among those he chose to examine. I had read Charles Mann's "1491" prior to this book and found it primed my interest in the subject; both are excellent introductions to the reality of pre-Columbian American societies, but Stolen Continents provides more of a historical context for what has become of them.

Well intentioned but ignorant
It's clear that this author is well intentioned. He betrays his own ignorance in trying to justify why his book only addreses certain native nations, however. The author indicates that the book did not address the native peoples of the Caribbean because they are extinct. To state that the Taino and Carib are extinct is at best extremely ignorant and at worst racist. The Taino and Carib are very much alive. To begin with, there is a reservation of Carib Indians on the island of Dominica. These native people have retained their language and culture. Further, there is a Taino Revival movement happening throughout the major Antilles especially in the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and Cuba. It has been scientifically proven via DNA analysis that these people are of partial and in some cases total native descent. The Taino language is being heard and taught again in the Caribbean and Taino culture has always been an integral part of the the customs and culture of the major Antilles. It is very unfortunate to know that even this author is ultimately just another white guy bent on ignoring " incovenient truths ".
