The book explores the complex and often disjointed nature of Federal Indian law, which encompasses a variety of legislative acts, treaties, executive orders, and judicial rulings. It highlights the inconsistent application of these laws to American Indians over centuries, revealing a precarious legal status for both individual tribes and their members in relation to the federal government. The text delves into the historical and ongoing challenges faced by Indigenous peoples within this convoluted legal framework.
