Reviews

"Schenck's book makes a significant contribution to the historiography of Euro-Indian people in early-nineteenth-century Wisconsin and Minnesota, especially as a resource of detailed information and primary texts. It provides welcome access to a subject, a place, and time, all of which demand more attention from historians."--Jane Lamm Carroll, Minnesota History-- (7/9/2008 12:00:00 AM)
