Book Description
for Keeping Promises by Betty Reid and Ben Winton
From the Publisher
You probably know that millions of people lived in North America before Columbus wandered into the Caribbean. They are now citizens of the United States, but they are also citizens of their own nations, all duly recognized by the federal and local governments. This book concisely and simply answers questions about law enforcement, Indian gaming, reservation boundaries, and other subjects. Most important, it helps us understand how Indians define themselves, their tribes, and their sovereignty. Photographs by Gwendolen Cates.
