The Crime Against The Yakimas (1913)

The Crime Against The Yakimas is a historical non-fiction book written by Lucullus Virgil McWhorter and published in 1913. The book details the mistreatment and injustices committed against the Yakima Native American tribe by the United States government during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. McWhorter, who was a friend and ally of the Yakima people, provides a first-hand account of the events that led to the displacement and forced assimilation of the tribe. He also sheds light on the various treaties and agreements that were made between the Yakima and the government, and how these were often disregarded or violated. The book is a powerful indictment of the government's treatment of Native American tribes during this time period, and serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for justice and equality for indigenous peoples in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
