Through A Century of Dishonor, Helen Hunt Jackson sought to galvanize the American nation against the United States federal government’s Native American treaty abuses. She combed the archives of the Astor Library in New York and studied the official reports of the War Department and the Department of the Interior, in effort to give Native Americans back their “humanity” in the eyes of whites.
