“Well written, moving and stimulating.”
—The New York Times
Indian Country is experiencing a revolution of epic proportions whereby every aspect of Indian life—from the resurgence of traditional religions and cultures to the aggressive development of tribal governments—is being transformed. This provocative book peels back some of the layers of distortion that blur our vision of American Indians in the 1990s and shows that the transformation taking place in “Indian Country” is much more than just a passing phenomenon at the margins of American society. This in-depth exploration of Indian Country, based on four years of research on Native American reservations, overturns the fallacies and myths surrounding the Indians and reveals the realities of tribal life today and its effect on American society in the future.
