Messages from Franks Landing : a story of salmon, treaties, and the Indian way

Wilkinson, Charles F. 1941- (Author). Adams, Henry, 1944- (Added Author). Sylvain, Diane. (Added Author).

Summary: In 1974 Federal Judge George H. Boldt issued one of the most sweeping rulings in the history of the Pacific Northwest, affirming the treaty rights of Northwest tribal fishermen and allocating to them 50 percent of the harvestable catch of salmon and steelhead. Among the Indians testifying in Judge Boldt’s courtroom were Nisqually tribal leader Billy Frank, Jr., and his 95-year-old father, whose six acres along the Nisqually River, known as Frank’s Landing, had been targeted for years by state game wardens in the so-called Fish Wars.
