Indigenous Canadian narrator Darrell Dennis delivers this unvarnished account of Native American history for middle-grade students. The audiobook, part of the True History series, does not shy away from uncomfortable truths about the European colonization of the Americas. Dennis speaks without rancor or sensationalism, delivering facts about the American Indians’ roles in aiding the colonists in matters of governance and farming, their reactions to being marginalized and often brutalized by the U.S. and colonial governments, and their continued ability to survive and thrive. He speaks in a quiet, measured tone, guiding the listener through periods of history loosely divided into sections titled “Knowledge,” “Myths,” “Erasure,” and the more hopeful, “Resilience.” Sidebar material flows easily into the main text.
