  William Hagan's concise account of Indian-white relations has become one of the standard histories of the subject. For this third edition, Hagan has updated information throughout the book and added a new chapter, Domestic, Dependent Nations, in which he discusses developments in Native American life in the 1970s and 1980s. In his new bibliographic essay, Hagan surveys recent research and offers suggestions for further reading. The author has reduced the long story--often as tangled as a five-year-old's fishing line--into a brief, clear, and highly interesting book. . . . A remarkable achievement. -- San Francisco Chronicle William T. Hagan is professor of history at the University of Oklahoma and the author of The Sac and Fox Indians, Indian Police and Judges, United States-Comanche Relations, and The Indian Rights Association.
