The Nantucket Indians is a non-fiction book written by R. A. Douglas-Lithgow that provides a comprehensive overview of the history, culture, and lifestyle of the Nantucket Indians, a Native American tribe that inhabited the island of Nantucket off the coast of Massachusetts. The book covers the period from the arrival of the first European settlers in the 17th century to the present day, and explores the impact of colonization, disease, and cultural assimilation on the Nantucket Indians. It also delves into the tribe's traditional beliefs, customs, and practices, including their hunting and fishing techniques, use of natural resources, and spiritual ceremonies. The author draws on a range of primary and secondary sources, including archaeological evidence, oral histories, and written records, to provide a nuanced and insightful portrayal of this fascinating and often overlooked community. Overall, The Nantucket Indians offers a rich and engaging account of the history and culture of one of America's oldest indigenous groups.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
