- "The front pages of the nation's newspapers have never been the same since June, 1987, when the Assembly of First Nations decided upon a confrontational course of direct action. All across the country, Indian bands have taken to blockading roads, setting up picket lines and occupying government-held properties in an attempt to publicize their disputes and to get governments to respond. In [this book] prominent native leaders and editor Boyce Richardson tell the history of the relations between eight Indian bands and the Canadian federal and provincial governments. These are histories of betrayal, double dealing, and racism, and finally, of the native peoples' rising anger and determination to claim what has been denied them, and to forge a new and powerful role in Canadian society". -- back cover.
