Haudenosaunee

Bringing Indigenous topics out of the past and into the here and now, this series invites readers to explore the lives and cultures of major tribal nations and groups across North America.

The Haudenosaunee peoples, sometimes called the Iroquois, share language, culture, and history that connects them in many ways in both the United States and Canada. In this introduction to the People of the Longhouse, readers will learn about the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora peoples, their lives today, their ancestral lands, and how they are carrying traditions forward. This book includes:

• Highlights of Indigenous achievements, contributions, and resilience
• An Indigenous language feature: Say Hello!
• Age-appropriate introduction to Indigenous cultures and peoples
• Content reviewed by language and culture experts

Written by Indigenous author and public historian, Heather Bruegl, a citizen of the Oneida Nation and first-line descendent Strockbridge-Munsee, the Indigenous Peoples of North America series provides a simple and authentic introduction to the unique cultures and peoples that have made this continent home for thousands of years, and are still here today.
