Book

The invasion of Indian country in the twentieth century : American capitalism and tribal natural resources / by Donald L. Fixico.

Fixico, Donald Lee, 1951- (Author).

Summary:

The struggle between Indians and whites for land did not end on the battlefields in the 1880s. When this hostile era closed with Native Americans forced onto reservations, no one expected that rich natural resources lay beneath these lands that white America would desperately desire. Yet oil, timber, fish, coal, water, and other resources were discovered to be in great demand in the mainstream market, and a new war began with Indian tribes and their leaders trying to protect their tribal natural resources throughout the twentieth century." "In The Invasion of Indian Country in the Twentieth Century, Donald Fixico details the course of this struggle, providing a wealth of information on the resources possessed by individual tribes and the way in which they were systematically defrauded and stripped of these resources.
