Summary: Good beginning
Review: This book is far from definitive, but is a good start. If the educational reformers wanted to really make positive change occur, they would find a way to put this book in the hands of every high school government teacher in the United States. Those teachers who actually read it could then be pointed toward the exceptional works that go into more depth by Charles Wilkinson, David Wilkins, Robert A. Williams, Vine Deloria, Jr., Frank Pommersheim, and the definitive Westlaw Casebook, edited by David H. Getches, Wilkinson, and Williams, now in its fourth edition.In teaching American Indian history, I find that I often refer to this little primer, but nearly always have to go beyond it to find out what I need. However, I have found it particularly useful for those on a limited budget who need something that provides a basic overview of the critical areas of the laws affecting Native peoples and Indian tribes.
