A wide-ranging study, this book focuses on the effects of interaction between Indian and non-Indian peoples and on the complex relationships between Indians and their environments. Contributors confront common misconceptions about Indian groups by reexamining such controversial topics as boundary perceptions, land sharing, causes for migration, and economic conditions on Indian reservations. Issues of land claims, urbanization, patterns of economic development, and forced migration are also discussed. The information presented here is an essential component of an accurate assessment of whether North American Indians can survive as a distinct culture.
