Reproduced in this two-volume set are hundreds of treaties and
agreements made by Indian nations - with, among others, the
Continental Congress; England, Spain, and other foreign countries;
the Republic of Texas and the Confederate States; railroad
companies seeking rights-of-way across Indian land; and other
Indian nations. Many were made with the United States but either
remained unratified by Congress or were rejected by the Indians
themselves after the Senate amended them. Many others are
""agreements"" made after U.S. treaty making with Indian tribes
officially ended in 1871. These documents - augmented by chapter
introductions that concisely set each type of treaty in its
historical and political context - these documents effectively
trace the evolution of American Indian diplomacy in the United
States. This volume is the first major accessible compilation since
Charles Kappler's 1904 Indian Affairs, Laws and Treaties. As a
group, these documents highlight American Indians' roles as active
agents in international diplomatic affairs.
