History of Us

"In writing this book, Johnson chose to focus on the tribe into which he had been born- not the entire Nisenan territory, and definitely not about the Maidu, with whom his tribe has been mistakenly linked in the past. History of us contains information supported by multiple sources, including tribal elders. He has gathered hundreds of documents from national, state and municipal files, as well as a great many authentic newspaper stories that record activities from the past." -- publisher.
