Show 184 SOURCES Frank D. Reeve has written helpful articles for volumes 12 and 13 of the New Mexico Historical Review. The surveys by Underhill, Young, and Terrell cited in Chapter 6, above, also provide good general discussions of this later period. Also see Gerald E. Thompson, "To the People of New Mexico: General Carleton Defends the Bosque Redondo," Arizona and the West (Winter 1972), and two publications of the Navajo Tribe: Martin Link, Hwelte (1971), and David M. Brugge and J. Lee Correll, The Story of the Navajo Treaties (1971). Documentary sources include the Annual Reports of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs and another set of printed congressional documents, the Records of the War of the Rebellion. Unpublished documents can be found at the National Archives, Washington, D.C., Natural Resources Branch, Record Group 75. Oral history for this period was taken from Navajo Stories of the Long Walk Period (Tsaile, Arizona: Navajo Community College Press, 1973); Virginia Hoffman and Broderick H.Johnson, Navajo Biographies (Rough Rock, Arizona: Rough Rock Demonstration School, 1970); and the Duke American Indian Oral History Project, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah (particularly number 661, Charlie Begay, Kayenta, Arizona, interviewed by A. Williams; and number 769, Tom Lefty, Navajo Mountain, Utah, interviewed by David M. Brugge and Paul H. Talker). Valuable sources for northern Navajo material are Charles Kelly, "Chief Hoskaninni," Utah Historical Quarterly 21 (July 1953); J. Lee Correll, "Navajo Frontiers in Utah and Troublous Times in Monument Valley," Utah Historical Quarterly 39 (Spring 1971); and Left Handed, Son of Old Man Hat, as told to Walter Dyk (Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1966). Chapter X: Navajo Country Reborn In addition to the works by Underhill, Terrell, and Young cited above, see James F. Downs, The Navajo (N.Y.: Holt, Rinehart, and Winston, 1972), and Henry F. Dobyns and Robert C. Euler, The Navajo People (Phoenix: Indian Tribal Series, 1972). Information on Utah Navajos can be found in David M. Brugge, "Navajo Use and Occupation of Lands North of the San Juan River in Present Day Utah," unpublished MSS, Navajo Tribal Museum, Window Rock, Arizona; Joseph G. Colgan, "Utah School Section Study," unpublished MSS, Navajo Tribal Museum, Window Rock, Arizona; Richard Van Valkenburgh, "Blood Revenge of the Navajo," Desert Magazine (October 1943); J. Lee Correll, Bai-a-lil-le: Medicine Man - or Witch? (Window Rock, Arizona: Navajo Tribe, 1970); and the two Utah Historical Quarterly articles cited in the preceding essay. Documents, once again, can be found in the Annual Reports of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs and the National Archives, Washington, D.C. Chapter XI: The Navajo as a Nation The Underhill, Terrell, Young, Downs, and Dobyns volumes cited in the previous two essays provide general material for this period as well. John Collier tells his story in "The Navajos," From Every Zenith (Denver: Sage Books, 1963). Lawrence Kelly presents another impressive analysis in The Navajo Indians and Federal Indian Policy, 1900-1935 (Tucson: University of Arizona Press, 1968). Also see David M. Brugge, "Navajo Land Use: A Study in Progressive Diversification," in Clark S. Knowlton, ed., Indian and Spanish-American Adjustments to Arid and Semiarid Environments (Lubbock, Texas: Texas Technical College, 1964). Oral history and Utah information came from Navajo Livestock Reduction: A National Disgrace, compiled by Ruth Roessel and Broderick H.Johnson (Tsaile, Arizona: Navajo Community College Press, 1974); as well as Brugge, "Navajo Use and Occupation," and Correll, Bai-a-lil-le; Medicine Man-or Witch? The government's version of the Ba'ililii incident is presented in Senate Executive Document 517, "Report on Employment of United States Soldiers in Arresting By-a-lil-le and other Navajo Indians," (60th Congress, 1st session), and the 1908 Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs. Finally, anyone wishing to study Navajo history or culture at any length should consult two good bibliographies: Peter Iverson, The Navajos: A Critical Bibliography (Bloomington, Indiana: Indiana University Press, 1976); and J. Lee Correll, Editha L. Watson, and David M. Brugge, Navajo Bibliography with Subject Index (Window Rock, Arizona: Navajo Tribe, 1969), and Supplement No. 1 (1973). |
