This remarkable account, written by Charles Wilkinson, one of the nation's most respected experts in tribal law and history, is rich in the Indian voice and grounded in extensive research that includes oral tradition and personal interviews. The history of the Siletz is in many ways the history of all Indian tribes in America: a story of heartache, perseverance, survival, and revival. It began in a resourcerich homeland thousands of years ago and today finds a vibrant, modern community with a deeply held commitment to tradition.
