Reviews
Reservations, Removal, and Reform is a comprehensive and commanding portrait of the federal government's Mission Indian agents in the critical final quarter of the nineteenth century. Told here is a story of conflicting loyalties, unrelenting pressures, and the shifting tides of state and federal Indian policies. Told equally well is the gripping story of the Native people of California struggling to survive in their ancestral homelands rendered now into an alien world. Highly recommended. --James J. Rawls, author of Indians of California: The Changing Image Reservations, Removal, and Reform is recommended reading for anyone interested in California Indian history. This important contribution to history provides a balanced view of the reformers and scalawags who served as Mission Indian agents. --Albert L. Hurtado, author of Indian Survival on the California Frontier
