Indian diplomatic concerns. The documents provide a wealth of new
information about Indian relations with the United States and its
European predecessors that should prove invaluable to both legal
and historical researchers. . . . It makes the record of Native
American diplomacy more complete than it has ever been."" -

""Documents of American Indian Diplomacy contributes to our
understanding of the evolution of federal Indian policy and law and
the history of Indian-white relations. . . . The work also provides
readers with a chance to reflect on the promises the United States
made, often in perpetuity, for the millions of acres of land ceded
by Indian nations and to judge whether the U.S. has abided by
them."" - Jay Buckley, in the Great Plains Quarterly
