Summary:The Aztecas del norte form the largest Indian "tribe" or "nation" found in the United States today. Like other Native American groups, the Aztecas of Aztlan (or people of the Southwest) are not an entirely unified or homogeneous group. Some call themselves "Chicanos" and view Aztlan as their true homeland; others consider themselves "Mexicanos" with Mexico their homeland. Still others see themselves as "Mexican-Americans," Americans of Mexican heritage, whereas a fourth group, "Hispanos," emphasize their shared language rather than their Mexican descent. However, they are all linked by their Mexican Anishinabe (Indian) ancestry. It is from this background that the basis for modern Mexican and Mexican-American identity is derived. Aztecas del norte is an original historical treatment that departs from the standard approaches to the subject. By examining the Chicanos' Native American heritage, Jack D. Forbes has created a work destined to become a landmark study.
