Kurzbeschreibung
Andrew Jackson Blackbird (ca. 1814 - 1908) was an Ottawa tribe leader and historian. He was author of the 1887 book, History of the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of Michigan. His father was a tribal chief. Blackbird was an interpreter at the Protestant mission in L'Arbre Croche. Even though he was a Christian, he knew the traditional Ottawa religious beliefs well, since he had received an extensive tribal education. Blackbird became a counselor between the United States government and the Ottawa and Ojibwa peoples. His marriage to a white woman facilitated this position. History of the Ottawa and Chippewa Indians of Michigan was among the first authoritative accounts of the Ottawa and Chippewa peoples ever published. The book covers historical facts, day-to-day details of how the Ottawa and Ojibwa hunted, fished and trapped before the coming of the whites, and Blackbird explains many of the traditional beliefs and cultural practices of the two tribes. The last section of the book is a basic grammar of the Ottawa and Ojibwa languages.

History comes alive
7. Dezember 2001
Mac-ke-te-be-nessy or Andrew J. Blackbird gives us a personal insight into his life as a lens to view the life of American Indians in Michigan. He explains the legends of his people and the influence of the Christian missionaries on his beliefs. He also writes of the difficulties or what we today call racism that he encountered through his dealings with the US Government and the higher learning institutions of his day (University of Michigan and Eastern Michigan University). The history is rich and presented with sincerity. Anyone looking to know more about history from the perspective of a man who lived through it, especially American Indian history in the mid 19th century will benefit greatly by this book.
A great look into the history of Michigan

If you are from Michigan, especially if you have a Native American background, this is a very good book. A Michigander will definitely recognize many of the locations discussed. A great look at life for an American Indian way of life. The definitions of the naive language got to be too long but they are to the end of the book. This would be a great reference if anyone is studying the American Indian language.
Great history
