Description and Table of Contents
Description
In the Puget Sound region of Washington state, indigenous peoples and their descendants have a long history of interaction with settlers and their descendants. This text offers an account of these interactions, from contact with traders of the 1820s to the Indian fishing rights activism of the 1970s. Revealing the complexity of Indian history the text examines relations in various spheres of life - labour, public ceremony, marriage and kinship, politics and law - and attempts to show how Indians have continually redefined themselves.
