From Library Journal
Written by a Native American author from the Jemez Pueblo near Santa Fe, this updates his Pueblo Indians (Indian Historical Pr., 1976), and complements his Nee Hemish: A History of Jemez Pueblo (Univ. of New Mexico Pr., 1982). Discussed are origins and development of Pueblo civilization, Spanish conquest, the Pueblo Revolt of the 1680s, land, water, survival, and U.S. government influence. Text, maps, and bibliography are close to Pueblo Indians; new additions include recent events, discussion of the "Colubmian Quincentenary and the Pueblo Indians," and additional photographs. Students of modern Pueblo history may wish to read Pueblo Nations in tandem with R.C. Gordon-McCutchan's The Taos Indians and the Battle for Blue Lake (Red Crane Bks., 1991). Author-educator Sando's work may help Pueblos understand their history from a Native American perspective and will illuminate Pueblo struggles and heritage for other readers. This is recommended for Native American and general collections that lack the earlier book or need an update of it.

. . . the first insider's story of the 800-year history of the 19 Pueblos in New Mexico. This is an great book. --New York Times

Reader Reviews
As a member of the Sun Clan of the Jemez people, Joe Sando was in a unique position to research and write this history. As a scholar trained at Eastern New Mexico State and at Vanderbilt, he developed his skills as an historian. As a person he retained his empathy and humanity while confronting the unjust policies that have been visited on the Pueblo peoples by the Spanish, Mexican and United States governments. If you are interested in a well-balanced, incisive history of the New Mexico Pueblo people (the Hopi are not covered here), this book is worth the money to buy, the effort to read and the time to understand.
