A perfect introduction to a vital subject very few Americans
understand-the constitutional status of American Indians
Few American s know that Indian tribes have a legal status unique
among America's distinct racial and ethnic groups: they are
sovereign governments who engage in relations with Congress. This
peculiar arrangement has led to frequent legal and political
disputes-indeed, the history of American Indians and American law
has been one of clashing values and sometimes uneasy compromise. In
this clear-sighted account, American Indian scholar N. Bruce Duthu
explains the landmark cases in Indian law of the past two
centuries. Exploring subjects as diverse as jurisdictional
authority, control of environmental resources, and the regulations
that allow the operation of gambling casinos, "American Indians and
the Law" gives us an accessible entry point into a vital facet of
Indian history.
