The Rotinonshonni: A Traditional Iroquoian History through the Eyes of Teharonhia:wako and Sawiskera (The Iroquois and Their Neighbors) - Softcover
Synopsis
In this book, Rice offers a comprehensive history based on the oral traditions of the Rotinonshonni Longhouse People, also known as the Iroquois. Drawing upon J. N. B. Hewitt’s translation and the oral presentations of Cayuga Elder Jacob Thomas, Rice records the Iroquois creation story, the origin of Iroquois clans, the Great Law of Peace, the European invasion, and the life of Handsome Lake. As a participant in a 700-mile walk following the story of the Peacemaker who confederated the original five warring nations that became the Rotinonshonni, Rice traces the historic sites located in what are now known as the Mississippi River Valley, Upstate New York, southern Quebec, and Ontario.
The Rotinonshonni creates from oral traditions a history that informs the reader about events that happened in the past and how those events have shaped and are still shaping Rotinonshonni society today.

Review
"This is a fine and splendid book in all respects. Dr. Brian Rice, Mohawk scholar, takes an extraordinary journey, as seen by the People of the Longhouse, on a fascinating trail into the cosmos of the Iroquois. From the Creation onward, he guides the reader epoch by epoch, vista by vista—all integrally related—until this vital, living and interpretive cosmic totality is seen in all of its great complexity and full richness. He draws both on his own extensive and deeply reflective cultural life—and also from the oral traditions of knowledgeable elders.""—Hunter Gray (Abenaki / Mohawk), University of North Dakota
