Reviews

... readers will be rewarded by a spirited and provocative introduction and conclusion and plenty of fresh research. -- Desmond Morton * University of Toronto Quarterly, Vol. 77, No. 1, Winter 2008 * This timely text will be of great assistance to those assisting the First Nations in the recovery of their ancestral lands. With maps, tables and illustrations, the author takes the reader through fifty years of native land takeovers by the Canadian military. This may well be the handbook for those assisting in land recovery or lease variation. -- Ronald F. MacIsaac * Fiat Justicia *
