"Rossum has written a useful and informative book. His account of Congress on again off again approach to tribal independence will inform readers with a general interest in American Indian history. His description of the Marshall trilogy and subsequent case law is sufficiently detailed to be of interest to lawyers without prior exposure to federal Indian law. . . . [A] well written and thoroughly researched book that will appeal to a diverse audience. Perhaps in a future effort Rossum will let us know what he thinks about the long term viability of sovereign tribes in a global society and economy, but for this effort he should be commended for providing a clear and interesting explanation of how we got to where we are."--Library of Law and Liberty
"Rossum's contribution is welcome for its addition of federal Indian law to an excellent series of books for undergraduates."--Choice
"Some view Cabazon as an emphatic ruling supporting tribal sovereignty, while others see it as a deeply compromised decision that elevated state government's role in internal native affairs. Rossum deftly situates the case historically, legally, and culturally, and persuasively argues that this is one of the more important decisions ever handed down by the High Court."--David E. Wilkins, author of American Indian Sovereignty and the U.S. Supreme Court
"Rossum's well researched book hits all the crucial topics and deals comprehensively with a host of complex issues in a clear, concise, and interesting manner. I wholeheartedly endorse it."--Alexander Tallchief Skibine, S.J. Quinney, Professor of Law, University of Utah
