A compelling account of the Oneida Nation's struggle to retain its sovereignty and its reservation lands. This book describes jurisdictional battles that Indian nations in the United States are continually confronted with, and provides helpful instruction on how these nations can work on a government-to-government basis with their neighbors. It offers hope that Indian nations can preserve their cultural and political integrity and continue to prosper and thrive. --C. Kent McNeil, author of Flawed Precedent: The St. Catherine's Case and Aboriginal Title This valuable book lays out the features of a legal and political strategy to defend a reservation boundaries case. This material is very readable, even thrilling in places where tribal citizens detail their ongoing, real-world struggles with the Village of Hobart. Successful and compelling. --Matthew L. M. Fletcher, author of Ghost Road: Anishinaabe Responses to Indian-Hating
