The Lambert Tapes - Volume Two: Cherokee Indian History - Hardcover

by Barnett Ronald Wilson (Author)

The Lambert Tapes represents a refreshing departure from the endless footnoted, numbingly dry and mundane, history books. This text is history in the raw! These stories and accounts have been interpretively transcribed from a series of taped conversations with the late and eminent historian for the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, Carl Glenn Lambert. Here are first person revelations of Cherokee Indian history, remembrances, assorted stories, and commentary on a wide variety of subjects. The dialog is enlightening and inspirationally uplifting. Conversations consist of disjointed and fragmented statements, which are comprised of jumbled words and phrases - not to mention silent inferences. This free flowing exchange with Carl Lambert was totally unrehearsed and certainly the subjects were not preplanned. For clarification and appreciation, the author has inserted supplemental and supportive background information.
