Indian treaty-making policy in the United States and Canada, 1867-1877 / Jill St. Germain.
Summary:
"Indian Treaty-Making Policy in the United States and Canada, 1867-1877 is a comparison of United States and Canadian Indian policies with emphasis on the reasons these governments embarked on treaty-making ventures in the 1860s and 1870s, how they conducted those negotiations, and their results. Jill St. Germain challenges assertions made by the Canadian government in 1877 of the superiority and distinctiveness of Canada's Indian policy compared to that of the United States."--BOOK JACKET.
