"The Nez Perce was first published in 1994. To update and prepare the book for republication today, we have worked with Jeanette Weaskus Matuska, PhD, a Nez Perce tribal member who has served as a tribal scholar and is a former professor of American Indian Studies. We hope this book serves as an introduction to one of the first American Nations and that you will continue to explore Nez Perce history and culture by visiting the websites listed in the back of the book."-- title page verso
