Description: "Still the only work of its kind, canvassing federal law and its history as applied to the Indigenous Peoples of Alaska. It offers lucid explanations of the often-tangled history of policy and law. Divided into four broad themes of indigenous rights to land, subsistence services, and sovereignty, the book offers a thorough and balanced analysis of these rights in the forty-ninth state"--P.
