Arranged alphabetically, the articles of this 3-volume reference chronicle the many conflicts that occurred in what would become the US before the Declaration of Independence. Articles are included on conflicts, notable figures, and locales. Many of the articles are on Native American tribes and notable Native Americans. Each article is signed and includes a list of cross references and short bibliography. V.3 is devoted to primary documents, including letters, ordinances, reports, charters, and treaties, many of them excerpted. Among the documents included are John White's account of the disappearance of the inhabitants of Roanoke Island, Don Juan de Oñate's 1599 letter from New Mexico, the English Bill of Rights, and King George II's 1755 war speech to Parliament. This is a thoughtful and thorough resource that will be of interest to high school and undergraduate students and the general reader. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
