A Final Promise: The Campaign to Assimilate the Indians, 1880-1920"This is an important book. In the latter nineteenth century, diverse and influential elements in white America combined forces to settle the 'Indian question' through assimilation. . . . The results were the essentially treaty breaking Dawes Act of 1887, related legislation, and dubious court decisions. Schoolteachers and missionaries were dispatched to the reservations en masse.

"This is an important book. In the latter nineteenth century, diverse and influential elements in white America combined forces to settle the 'Indian question' through assimilation. . . . The results were the essentially treaty-breaking Dawes Act of 1887, related legislation, and dubious court decisions. Schoolteachers and missionaries were dispatched to the reservations en masse. Eventual 'citizenship' without functional rights was given Native Americans; the Indians lost two-thirds of reservation land as it had existed before the assimilationist campaign. . . . With insight and skill that go well beyond craft, Hoxie has admirably defined issues and motives, placed economic/political/social interaction into cogent perspective, brought numerous Anglo and Indian individuals and organizations to life, and set forth important lessons."-Choice. "This significant study of Indian-white relations during a complex time in national politics deserves close attention."-American Indian Quarterly. "Important and intellectually challenging . . . This volume goes far to fill a large gap in the history of United States Indian policy."-Journal of American History. Frederick E. Hoxie is director of the D'Arcy McNickle Center for the History of the American Indian at the Newberry Library. He coedited (with Joan Mark) E. Jane Gay's With the Nez Perces: Alice Fletcher in the Field, 1889-92 (Nebraska 1981).

Great Option for older, beginner workouts
Color: Gray, Style: Yoga Mat
I am a 54-year-old woman with multiple issues dealing with my weight, knees, and hips. The support of this particular mat is thick enough that there is no pain when being on my knees or lying down. It does not pinch your pressure points, causing pain as a thinner mat would. I am very pleased with the quality of this mat; it feels durable and I do not worry about my flopping around and destroying it while I learn the proper positions I need for my exercises. The length and width is sufficient for my 5 foot 11 inch height and extra girth. I was not looking for anything in particular in terms of design or color, as I prefer functionality, and this is to be used at home as a beginner mat while I start my exercise program.

Great Quality Mat for the Price
Color: Gray, Style: Yoga Mat, Color: Gray, Style: Yoga Mat
After burning through several cheap mats that curled, bunched, or wore out within weeks, this one finally got it right. The 1/2-inch high-density foam provides real cushioning, my knees and wrists feel the difference immediately, and it holds its shape without feeling unstable during balance poses. Grip is solid on hardwood and carpet alike, and the included carry strap is a small but genuinely useful touch that makes hauling it to the gym effortless. It's a bit bulky for travel, but for home or gym use it's hard to beat at this price. The quality speaks for itself, this feels like a mat built to last. Highly recommend.

This is very good
Color: Purple, Style: Yoga Mat, Color: Purple, Style: Yoga Mat
It’s a really good size and quite soft; the only downside is that I think it’s a bit pricey. It’s a good option if you don’t have other choices, but if you can find something better, do so.
