Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee An Indian History of the American West by Dee Brown is a book that describes the cruel details in which Indians were driven off their lands by the whites from the Indians point of view. Dee Brown’s focus is to tell the stories often narrated by the American Indians themselves that were rarely written or talked about in our history. His intent is to reveal their side of the story as it came from their eyes and their own pain. In many instances Brown quotes the Native Americans showing and expressing how little by little they were driven away from their own lands. The book begins mainly by narrating the initial relationship of the white man to the Indian in the early American years, from Christopher Columbus and the arrival of the pilgrims to the early 1800s.

The discovery of gold was of the most important factors that promoted violence against the Native Americans. When gold was discovered in California in 1848 it initiated a large amount of migrant traffic across the North American continent. This large influx of Americans brought more diseases to the Native Americans that devastated their tribes with great number of deaths.
The economic, social and political issues that occurred were not taken lightly by the Indians and sometimes the way they acted was diverse and disruptive. In today’s time, neither federal government nor the Native American tribes have come to a conclusion as to what identity or status the North American continent should be. In the nineteenth century, times were devastating for the Native Americans. The United States signed the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868 with the Sioux which was to keep non-Indians from hunting or settling on their reservation which had been recently established. At that time, they gave up rights to almost all the land they were occupying.

In James J Rawls’ California: A Place, a People, a Dream (1986 with Claudia K Jurmain), the golden state is portrayed as a land of abounding opportunity and almost guaranteed success. Its image is one of a place full of “ranch houses, redwood decks and patios, outdoor barbecues and kidney shaped swimming pools” (pg. 23). This replaced the older image of miners in the 1800’s scooping out handfuls of gold with little effort.
