Cabeza de Vaca's Adventures in the Unknown Interior of America. Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca gets lost in the America's. It's an unbelievable report of the pre-European southwest. It painted a wonderful picture of the beauty of Native American culture. I read it for a European History course as a dual view of Native Americans during European colonization.

Much appreciated. I literally just found another book on my shelf called The Indian Heritage of America by Alvin M. Josephy Jr. and got really excited at the prospect of diving into that oft neglected side of things.
