Federal Indian Policy

Thomas Clarkin

""Federal Indian Policy in the Kennedy and Johnson Administrations" does an excellent job of putting this decade into proper perspective" "Clarkin has written an important history and a valuable reference that deserves a place on the shelf beside other works of federal Indian policy." "This well-written book will go a long way toward answering the questions of those interested in recent policy developments" "Thomas Clarkin has produced a thoroughly researched and clearly written study of federal Indian policy in the 1960's. The author skillfully integrates archival sources with rich interviews of those who shaped policy during a turbulent decade and does not neglect the American Indian perspective. The narrative is a fine microstudy and complements the larger works on federal policy." Clarkins examination of the Kennedy and Johnson decade is an excellent addition to political studies of recent Indian history . . . Evaluation of the political actors adds to the merit of this monograph. Strongly recommended for undergraduate libraries.
