The Earth Shall Weep
ByPublisher Description
In this groundbreaking, critically acclaimed historical account of the Native American peoples, James Wilson weaves a historical narrative that puts Native Americans at the center of their struggle for survival against the tide of invading European peoples and cultures, combining traditional historical sources with new insights from ethnography, archaeology, oral tradition, and years of his own research.
charts the collision course between Euro-Americans and the indigenous people of the continent—from the early interactions at English settlements on the Atlantic coast, through successive centuries of encroachment and outright warfare, to the new political force of the Native American activists of today.
This "stylishly written . . . Beautifully organized" (
) tour de force is a powerful, moving chronicle of the Native American peoples that has been hailed as "the most balanced account of the taking of the American continent I've ever seen" (
).

“Just an incredible book with a huge amount of information as well as passion and heart to it. It took me so many months but I have learned so much and it has only made me want to explore deeper”
“truly hated every second of this book but at some point i was just too deep to DNF. he said a few things that made me question his reliability (such as saying multiple times that someone died due to fear…like if you’re going to say that you need to give more context bc what are you talking about).”
