Review Quotes:
" Documents of American Indian Diplomacy contributes to our understanding of the evolution of federal Indian policy and law and the history of Indian-white relations. . . . The work also provides readers with a chance to reflect on the promises the United States made, often in perpetuity, for the millions of acres of land ceded by Indian nations and to judge whether the U.S. has abided by them."-- Jay Buckley, in the Great Plains Quarterly
